Not even the executor or attorney-in-fact can use a decedent's bank accounts as an estate checking account. The executor may take the appropriate amount out of the decedent's personal accounts, but only to transfer it to an estate account for use for estate purposes, not to make estate related payments. An estate account is necessary because the executor needs to pay for the funeral expense, administration costs and debts. Since, the decent's personal accounts may no longer be used, payments must come from a proper estate account in the name of the estatte with the executor as the person with authority over the funds.
