Without conceding any limitations upon the legal authority vested by common and positive law in Fr.’s Estate, we finally note, for the sake of transparency and the assurance of potential contributors and other interested parties, that 1) the Estate does not control the account holding the aforementioned sum (the exact value of which is presently unknown), which is both legally and practically inaccessible to the Estate; 2) the Estate is willing to receive contributions merely to offset (and reimburse in a timely way) funeral costs and other Estate debts that include, most importantly, the travel expenses (and stipends, as applicable) of clergy, singers, and impoverished laity who wish to attend the services but who would otherwise be impeded financially from doing so;

So, does this mean that you guarantee full reimbursement of donated funds as soon as "the Estate" takes control of and has access to the funds in the account?

Glenmont - It is with heavy and hope filled hearts that we announce the passing of Father Joseph Francis Collins, age 66, from this veil of tears just before noon on Saturday, April 27, 2019. Father Collins served as Priest for St. Michael’s Traditional Catholic Chapel in Glenmont, New York and died peacefully in the Chapel’s Rectory.
Father had received a recent cancer diagnosis and was under the care of Community Hospice along with a brother priest and beloved parishioners. His final hour came quickly, but he was well prepared. His brother priest gave him final absolution, and recited the prayers for the dying. Father also received Extreme Unction and the Apostolic Blessing shortly after the seriousness of his illness became evident. He also received Holy Communion as Viaticuм on a daily basis, including on his final day. Over the last three weeks, he had a resurgence of energy that allowed him to receive many visitors, and to make or receive a number of phone calls. Father Collins is survived by his Mother, Edith E. Koptick Collins of Virginia, and five brothers; William O. Collins Jr., Thomas R. Collins, Gerard M. Collins, Christopher P. Collins, and Kevin P. Collins; along with several nieces, nephews and cousins. He was preceded in death by his Father, William O. Collins. Father Collins was born on October 6th, 1952 in Jamaica, New York to William O. Collins and Edith E. Koptick Collins. He graduated from McLean High School in McLean, Virginia and then attended George Mason University in Fairfax, Virginia. He developed a calling to the priesthood and entered priestly formation in Econe Switzerland, receiving his Diaconate on December 24, 1979 and his Ordination to the Priesthood on June 27th, 1980; both by Archbishop Marcellus Lefebvre of the Priestly Society of Saint Pius X. Father Collins served as Priest and Headmaster of St. Mary’s Academy in St. Mary’s Kansas from 1980 to 1982. He served as Priest at St. Pius V Chapel in Oyster Bay, New York and Principal at St. Pius V School in Wantagh, New York from 1983 to 1988. Father served as Priest in St. Michael the Archangel Church in Jacksonville, Florida from 1989 to 1999 and then as Priest at St. Michael’s Chapel in Glenmont, New York and Our Lady of Mt. Carmel /Sacred Heart Chapel in Hudson, New York from 1999 until his March, 2019 cancer diagnosis left him unable to further perform his Priestly duties. A Requeim Mass will be held Wednesday, May 8th, 11:00 am at St. Michael's Chapel, 507 Rt. 9W, Glenmont, NY. Friends may call at the church, Tuesday, 5-9:00 pm.
Father Collins requested donations in his name could be made to Bishop Daniel Dolan / St. Gertrude the Great Chapel 4900 Rialto Rd, West Chester Township, OH 45069 http://www.sgg.org/

Interesting that earlier today I saw the funeral home website with the request for donations to be sent to Bishop Dolan. I just saw the website again and that request has disappeared.

Something is not right.

It is possible it was posted by an unauthorized person who has no knowledge of the Will. Just as they dropped the initial funeral arrangements. My guess.
