RILEY, Judge

STATEMENT OF THE CASE

Appellant-Defendant, Alberta Welsh Turner (Alberta), the personal representative of the estate of Gaylord Turner (Turner), appeals the trial court's judgment ordering the estate's distribution according to the terms of Turner's will dated October 10, 2002, as opposed to Turner's will dated October 26, 2004. We affirm.
ISSUES

Alberta presents four issues, which we consolidate and restate as the following three issues: (1) Whether the trial court's designated findings of fact are in reality a summary of testimony that require a remand for findings of fact; (2) Whether the trial court's findings of isolation and undue influence are supported by sufficient evidence; and (3) Whether the complaint filed by Appellee-Plaintiff, Cassandra Wells (Cassandra), satisfied the requirements of Ind. Code
