OPINION

DRAUGHN, Justice.

This is an appeal from a summary judgment interpreting the effect of a simultaneous-death clause in the joint will of William and Lillie Parker, deceased. The trial court considered summary judgment motions by the testators’ two surviving sons and by the two children of the testators’ third son who predeceased the testators. At issue was certain real property devised to the deceased son. The trial court granted summary judgment awarding that real property interest to the two grandchildren. We reverse and render judgment in favor of the surviving sons.
