Truth of life .

[@charlierogertango1055]

Dont forget to notify their life insurance companies to help pay for any costs needed like burial or outstanding debts...

[@danielwayne8065]

Thanks. This was helpful.

My dad didn’t plan anything. He also told many folks in the family he had another extra account that he would tell me about one day, but then he died. 😮

[@ellencookman-EstatePlanningSNT]

I'm sorry to hear this.

What happens when the daughter has already cut the locks on her storage units and placed them in her home and the police won’t give you access to them to secure them of photograph them for inventory puposes

[@ellencookman-EstatePlanningSNT]

That sounds like a really difficult situation. I suggest you reach out to a trust litigation attorney in your area to discuss next steps.
