Doesn’t this just make you sick? There are so many worthy charities that could have used that money. “All I can do is shake my head at the stupidity of some people.

Peter Winn, the assistant U.S. attorney in Seattle who worked on accepting the estate monies, has an idea about the Petraseks’ decision:

“As a refugee from World War II, he was very grateful to his adopted country. He grew up with a lot of people in Eastern Europe who would have been happy to change places with him.

“There are still a lot of people in the world who would envy him the life he lived. He wanted to make a statement about how much it meant to him to be an American citizen.”
