change executor on a will

[discover]

Is it necessary to change an Executor on our will when he is no longer part of our family?

[Ethel]

An executor does not have to be a family member - very often it is a solicitor.

If you are happy for him to be executor, and he is still willing to perform those duties, there is no reason to change.
