Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
This is an appeal by a personal representative from a determination that decedent's residence was homestead property. We affirm. See In Re Estate of Boyd, 519 So.2d 692 (Fla. 4th DCA 1988). We certify to the supreme court the same question certified in Boyd:
IS THE CONCEPT OF ABANDONMENT AS SET OUT IN BARLOW V. BARLOW STILL VIABLE IN VIEW OF THE 1985 AMENDMENT OF THE HOMESTEAD PROVISIONS OF THE FLORIDA CONSTITUTION?
ANSTEAD and DELL, JJ., concur.
STONE, J., concurs in part and dissents in part with opinion.
