ORDER


Angela Jeans ("Wife") appeals from a judgment in the Circuit Court of St. Louis County finding that Sylvia Young, Angel Lane and Sharmae Young are the beneficiaries of Emmet Young's ("Decedent") $33,000 life insurance policy. In her sole point on appeal, Wife argues that the trial court erred in finding that Decedent did not intend to change his beneficiary because this finding was against the weight of the evidence. More specifically she argues that Decedent substantially complied with the terms of the policy and "had done everything possible to effect such a change."

No jurisprudential purpose would be served by a written opinion reciting the detailed facts and restating the principles of law. The parties have been furnished with a memorandum opinion for their information only, which sets forth the facts and reasons for this order.

We affirm the judgment pursuant to Rule 84.16(b).
