Tasha Tudor - Death

Death

Tasha Tudor died on June 18, 2008 in Marlboro, Vermont. Her estate, valued at over 1.2 million pounds, was contested by the three children she disinherited. According to the Daily Telegraph: "Her will, written in 2001, left the bulk of the estate to Seth Tudor, 67, and his son Winslow. It left only £600 each to her two daughters, Bethany Tudor, 69, and Efner Tudor Holmes, and a piece of antique furniture to younger son Thomas Tudor, 64, because of their "estrangement" from her." However, according to Brattleboro Probate Court documents, over Tasha Tudor's lifetime she gave her son Thomas Tudor a half share in her home in Marlboro, VT, and over $2,000,000.00 in art work and other gifts, with a similar lifetime disposition to her two daughters.

Famous quotes containing the word death:

    This death was his belief though death is a stone.
    This man loved earth, not heaven, enough to die.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    They can rule the world while they can persuade us
    our pain belongs in some order.
    Is death by famine worse than death by suicide,
    than a life of famine and suicide ... ?
    Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)

    How I envy you death;
    what could death bring,
    more black, more set with sparks
    to slay, to affright,
    than the memory of those first violets.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
