1Opinion of the Court

PARKER, Judge.

Caveators in this proceeding oppose probate of a paper writing dated 6 July 1977, purporting to be the Last Will and Testament of John R. Jarvis, on the grounds of improper execution under N.C.G.S. § 31-3.3, testator’s mental incapacity and undue influence. Caveators are James R. Jarvis and Kenneth R. Jarvis, the two older sons of deceased. Propounders are the widow, Mozelle H. Jarvis, and the youngest son, Jack M. Jarvis, who still lived with his parents at the time of John’s death in December 1986. The paper writing leaves John’s entire estate to his wife, if she survives him.
