The family of renowned baseball player Ernie Banks is contesting a will that allows his caregiver, Regina Rice, to have a full control over his assets, according to a report by CNN on February 17.
Banks’ family stated that apart from the will, Rice also made the late Chicago Cub sign a health care directive and a power of attorney. Jerry Banks, one of Ernie’s sons, said the caretaker pressed his father to sign the documents, who was suffering from dementia before his death last month. In a separate statement, meanwhile, Rice said the baseball icon entrusted her with the task of fulfilling his wishes after he died.
Ernie Banks suffered from a fatal heart attack in January at the age of 83.
