90. At age sixty-five, Carlota’s financial position was better than her health. She had a large balance in an IRA that she wanted to move to a different IRA.

Carlota withdrew $100,000 from the IRA and planned to roll the funds over into another IRA. Unfortunately, she died before completing the rollover.

Carlota’s son, Andres, discovered, a week after her death, what his mother had done. Andres was both executor of Carlota’s estate and beneficiary of her IRA.

Can Andres, in his role as executor, complete the rollover for his deceased mother by depositing the $100,000 in another IRA within the sixty-day rollover period?
