I am so sorry for your loss and for the stuation as it is. If you are named in the Will then you will get a copy of same in the mail with informnation as to when it is being offered for Probate. Or you should be getting it. Under stand, though, that a Will is a public record once it is filed and you can review it in the Probate Court file. Good luck.
