Late Twins center fielder Kirby Puckett left baseball memorabilia and other belongings to his children and designated monetary gifts to his siblings, according to the Hall of Famer's will filed Friday in a Phoenix court.

His children, Catherine and Kirby Jr., are to receive all baseball memorabilia owned by the former Twins star along with insurance benefits, all personal and household items and any "tangible personal property" owned by Puckett when he died, the will said.

According to a copy of the will obtained by the Star Tribune, Puckett also left gifts of $300,000 apiece to his sisters, June Sinkfield, Frances Hunter and Jacqueline Moore, and gifts of $100,000 apiece to brothers William Puckett and Ronnie Puckett.

The will doesn't say what Puckett's estate was worth at the time of his death.

Neither Puckett's ex-wife, Tonya Puckett, nor his fiancee, Jodi Olson, were listed as beneficiaries of the will.

Tonya Puckett is mentioned as the mother of Puckett's children in a section of the will that discusses life insurance proceeds for child support. The will was signed Feb. 18, 2003.

Puckett's longtime agent, Ronald M. Shapiro, was appointed trustee of the will when it was written. But Brian J. Woods will serve as personal representative of the will, said Bridget Logstrom, a Minneapolis attorney representing Puckett's children.

Logstrom said there was "nothing remarkable" about the will or the beneficiaries named.

Less than two weeks after the former Twins great died from a stroke, his ex-wife had taken legal steps to keep the Hall of Famer's personal memorabilia from falling into the wrong hands.

In a court document filed last week in Maricopa County, Ariz., where Puckett was residing when he died March 6, Tonya Puckett asked that a special administrator be appointed to inventory the contents of the ballplayer's Scottsdale home, which he shared with his fiancee.

Tonya Puckett did so to "preserve the estate and secure its proper administration" on behalf of the couple's children, Catherine and Kirby Jr., the petition said.

The contents of the house Puckett bought in November 2004 and shared with Olson were inventoried last week by a special administrator appointed by the court.

Mike Jacobs, Olson's brother-in-law, said that Olson would have no comment regarding Puckett's will.
