Decedent was divorced at the time of his death from Rose Marie Leet, who is now deceased. Decedent was not married at the time of his death. Decedent and Rose Marie Leet had one child, whose name is David Leet. This is the only child born to or adopted by Decedent during his lifetime. To Applicant’s best knowledge, Decedent died intestate. The names and physical addresses where service can be had of all Decedent’s heirs, the relationship of each heir to Decedent, whether each heir is an adult or minor, and the true interest of Applicant and of each of the heirs in the Estate of the Decedent are as follows: David Leet, Waco, Texas 76711, Adult son of Decedent, 100% of the Estate.
