No. The estate is responsible for any estate taxes. However, if your bequest involves a substantial amount of money you should seek professional advice. The attorney who is handling the estate should be able to advise you. If you get paid a fee for your services as the Administrator, that fee is treated as income and should be claimed on your tax return.
