Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Ida County, Steven J. Andreasen, Judge. AFFIRMED. Heard at oral argument by Ahlers, P.J., and Badding and Buller, JJ. Opinion by Buller, J. (18 pages)
Barbara Radke, the executor for the estate of Delores I. Todd, appeals a jury verdict finding Delores lacked testamentary capacity when she executed her 2010 will and that the will was the result of undue influence.
