When our mum died we all agreed that sorting out the house would wait till after her funeral . |

it is possible, I suppose that the person in the OP thought that that might be the only way of contacting the family..???and might not be able to find them later? |

When my gran went into a home, mum, my sister & I were clearing her house. I was taking grans clothes home (on a train), washing and ironing them, and taking them back, prior to taking the 'best' (she was a bit of a hoarder) to her. An aunt turned up, went through gran's clothes and tried to take the best, as she'd 'put on weight, and they'd fit her'. |

At MIL's wake, her niece asked OH for the fridge/washing machine and cooker. |

When OH's much loved aunt died, we were staying in her house while we informed everyone and arranged the funeral etc. |

It is true Mummo, some people get so engrossed in 'searching' that they don't stop to think. However, I am pretty sure that people on here wouldn't be so insensitive. Or I hope they wouldn't. A timely reminder though to think first. :-) |
