HOLMES, J.
The issue presented for our consideration is whether R.C. 3107.15(A)(2), which in effect abrogated the common-law "stranger to the adoption" doctrine, may be applied in construing wills or trust documents created prior to the effective date of such statute. We answer such query in the negative, and accordingly reverse the court of appeals.
