Decedent did not designate on the face of any of these three
checks that she was writing the check for “rent”, and the parties
have not stipulated that the check represented “rent”. Nor do we
find that decedent gave any of these three checks to Funny Hats
as rent.
Decedent’s bank also paid from decedent’s personal account a
$4,000 check that was dated February 7, 2000, and was payable to
Funny Hats. The face of the check bears the signed name of
decedent on the signature line and contains no notation as to its
purpose. Decedent did not write or sign this check. The check
was written and signed by Linda Labet, and she gave it to another
individual (not decedent) to endorse and to deposit into the
checking account of Funny Hats. As shown on the back of this
$4,000 check, the check was deposited into the checking account
of Funny Hats on February 11, 2000.
In addition to the payments discussed above, during her
leasehold decedent directly paid the following expenses
associated with the residence: Telephone, heating, water, and
cable. Decedent also paid these same types of expenses before
she transferred the residence to Funny Hats.
