See alsoAnderson v. Anderson, 210 Ga. 464, 471 ( 80 S.E.2d 807) (1954); Matter of Estate of Roosa, 753 P.2d 1028 (Wyo. 1988) (the appointment of a guardian under the Uniform Veterans' Guardianship Act does not result in a presumption of insanity or lack of testamentary capacity). But see Rymer v. Smith, 38 Tenn. App. 414 ( 274 S.W.2d 643) (1954). OCGA § 29-6-11(c) states:
Like a conservator, a guardian of an incompetent veteran is empowered with the same duties as a guardian of a minor. Rymer v. Smith, 38 Tenn.App. 414, 274 S.W.2d 643, 648 (1954). The purpose of appointing a conservator is "to preserve the estate of an incompetent or disabled person.". . . [A] conservator "shall have the same duties and powers as a guardian of a minor, and all laws related to the guardianship of a minor shall be applicable to a conservator."
How Andrews chooses to structure his last will and testament would then be decided, but his estate (including his home) would be available to provide care for Andrews during the remainder of his life. [¶ 44] Although the case is not directly in point with respect to the wording of the governing statutes, I find enough similarity in the case of Rymer v. Smith, 274 S.W.2d 643, 646-48 (Tenn.App. 1954), to accord it the status of persuasive precedent for the propositions set out above. In Rymer, the court held that establishment of a UVGA guardianship, in the manner provided for in the statute, was constructive notice to all, and financial transactions with a protected veteran were void.
