They received envelopes containing only £50 in cash each, out of a fortune valued at £500,000. A “hurt” and “disappointed” ninety-one-year-old grandfather left his grandchildren with only £50 each of his £500,000 fortune because they did not visit him more frequently.
Frederick Ward Snr., a former soldier who resided in Willow Road, South Ealing, London, had already divided his estate among his three children in a will.

However, Fred Sr. disregarded the children of his third deceased son Fred Jr. and left his fortune to his two children, Terry Ward and Susan Wiltshire, when he passed away in 2020, according to dailymail.co.uk.

Sr. expressed to his attorneys that he was unhappy that the children of his deceased son did not pay him a visit during his three hospital admissions for a lung ailment.

After Ward passed away, Terry read out his will, which included a fortune estimated at around £500,000. The grandchildren received envelopes from Uncle Terry that contained only £50 in cash each.
