RE: The Estate of Augustina Helen Corrales
2185 Reaney Avenue, St. Paul, MN
To Whom It May Concern:
Please be advised that as heirs of the estate of Augustina Helen Corrales we
have learned that the property taxes are delinquent. Our mother passed away on
November 25, 2000. Subsequent to her death we learned that our mother and
stepfather were seriously delinquent on their tax payments. We have inherited an
interest in the property and that we are attempting to rectify the delinquent tax situation.
We respectfully request that the property be restored to the estate. Thank you for your
consideration in this matter.
Very truly yours,
