According to Florida law, an executor (a/k/a “Personal Representative”) has a duty to promptly settle an estate and make distribution of the assets to the beneficiaries:

It is contended that the law makes it the duty of an executor to promptly settle an estate and make distribution of the assets. We agree to this contention, but the Okeechobee lands were in litigation, taxes had to be payed, buyers had to be found and Dora Sewell, in the meantime, had to have food, clothes and shelter.
