The above individuals, and Petitioner, are the only children of the decedent and are her sole heirs
at law.
3. The decedent, Louise Romaine Kimmel (Social Security Number: 198-22-8538) died
on 15 June 2009 at the age of 79 years. Her date of birth was 18 May 1930 and her residence, at
the time of her death, was 1069 Allendale Road in Mechanicsburg, Cumberland County,
Pennsylvania. Attached to this Petition and marked as EXHIBIT A is a certified death certificate
for the decedent.
4. At the time of her death, decedent owned only a small bank account, which had a
balance of less than $2,000.00, assorted items of furniture and other household property,
clothing, and ornament, which had a combined value of less than $2,000.00 and a potential claim
against a hospital for injuries suffered in a fall in 2007.
5. Decedent left no Will.
6. Petitioner believes it is necessary to have the court appoint a personal representative
of decedent's estate, to handle her affairs, liquidate her assets, pay her debts and any inheritance
taxes, administer the potential personal injury claim, and make final distribution of any
remaining assets.
7. Petitioner wishes to serve as the administrator of decedent's estate. He has prepared
a petition for probate and grant of letters, a copy of which is attached hereto and marked as
EXHIBIT B.
8. He is aware of the duties and obligations of the administrator of his mother's estate
and is ready, willing, and able to perform those duties and responsibilities.
9. Two of the other heirs of the decedent, Mark S. Peters and Stewart M. Peters, have
executed documents to renounce their right to serve as administrator of their mother's estate and
requested that Petitioner be appointed to that position. Copies of those documents are attached
hereto and marked as EXHIBIT C.
10. Petitioner has requested the other three heirs, Vanessa A. Peters, Chris A. Peters, and
Tina L. Peters, to execute similar documents renouncing their right to serve as administrator of
decedent's estate, but has received no response from them.
11. Petitioner believes he is in the best position to administer the estate and affairs of his
mother for several reasons, which include the following:
A. During her life time, decedent had appointed Petitioner as her attorney
in fact and reposed in him her confidence to handle her financial and personal affairs;
B. As a result of serving as decedent's attorney in fact, Petitioner has
knowledge of decedent's business and personal affairs;
C. Petitioner has been involved with decedent in all matters relating to the
potential personal ,injury claim she wished to pursue during her lifetime, including
meeting with petitioner's attorneys in other matters; and
D. He enjoyed the closeness personal relationship with the decedent at the
time of her death and for months or years prior to that.
WHEREFORE, Petitioner prays the Register of Wills of Cumberland County to take the
ollowing actions:
A. Issue Citations to Vanessa A. Peters, Chris A. Peters and Tina L.
Peters directing them to show cause, if any they have, why Petitioner's Petition
should not be granted and Petitioner should not be issued Letters of Administration
for the Estate of Louise Romaine Kimmel;
B. If there is no response to the Citations issued to those heirs, issue
Letters of Administration to Petitioner;
C. If any of the heirs of the decedent object to or otherwise oppose the
issuance of letters to Petitioner, to conduct a hearing and take such other action as
maybe necessary to determine the issues raised in this Petition and decide who
should be issued such letters; and
D. Following such action, issue Letters of Administration to Petitioner.
