Louise C., one of the present standby guardians and Caterina’s caretaker, is appointed sole successor guardian of the person of the respondent and the letters of guardianship that had issued to the previous guardians, Caterina’s parents, are revoked due to their deaths. Maria D., a daughter of Louise C., is appointed standby guardian to serve when the primary guardian is no longer able to do so and the appointment of the Consumer Advisory Board, as the other co-standby guardian in the June 23, 2009 decree of this court is vacated. Christina C., another daughter of Louise C., is appointed first alternate standby guardian to serve when neither the primary guardian nor the standby guardian is able to do so. The successor guardians shall assume the duties of their office subject to qualification and confirmation pursuant to the provisions of SCPA 1757. Although the Consumer Advisory Board is no longer appointed as one of the standby guardians, it shall be allowed to continue to advocate for and on behalf of Caterina.
