119. That's a good idea. Many road blocks and brick walls so far.

"Sorry without a social security number and proof of your relationship as an heir, and need-to-know, we cannot share private information."

We are, of course, curious. But that's the extent. Whatever "estate" he had remaining is of little concern and pursuing would require more resources and legal assistance than it's worth. --- We're content that he wasn't "found dead" in an alleyway. He did have friends and I'll choose to believe that (hopefully) he was being cared for, even as an indigent, when he died.

Thank you for you thoughts. I appreciate it.

She is "Sue" ... a name that we'd heard over the years. Close friend? Girlfriend? It's unknown. Oopsie Daisy May 2024 #3
that is terrible, to sound so casual Skittles May 2024 #71

He died in Florida. I've looked into this, but without his SSN, it's unlikely. Oopsie Daisy May 2024 #16
