In this photo taken Thursday, June 8, 2017, Nancy Zingheim stands in front of an Airstream trailer, similar to one owned by former RV park tenant Rita Poe, in Chimacum, Wash.

Weeks later, the 66-year-old Poe died of colorectal cancer, leaving nearly $800,000 to a dozen national wildlife refuges and parks, mostly in the West. She named Zingheim the executor.
