Single:  Situation 1 (Example 2)

Example 2

Survivor is one parent.

Assume you pass away without a written will. Your only surviving parent is your mother.

Your mother receives all of your assets.

If your father had been your only survivor he would have received all of your assets.

If this is not the division you desire, then you need to write a will.
