Dear Sir or Madam:
I am writing to you regarding the Estate of William D. Becker. My client, Ruth F.
Becker, was told by a third party that she needed to open an estate for her husband in order to
obtain proof of his death to pay a bill. Mr. Becker died owning no assets; therefore, it was not
necessary to open an estate for him. Because Ms. Becker proceeded with opening the estate, my
office is filing the attached Pennsylvania inheritance tax return.
Please contact my office if you have any questions.
Sincerely,
