The family of the deceased...
I have a strange question. To be quite honest, I have experienced very little death throughout my life. I know as I get older that will change, but I have been to 2 funerals. We recently had a very close friend die in a traumatic accident. He was 45 and left behind 5 children. The obituary states that "contributions can be made to the church." Where do these contributions go? Do they go to the family? toward funeral expenses?
Also, does anyone have any tips of what I can do for the family? I know sending cards is a good thing. Should I send one to each of the children as well as the wife? what about his siblings and parents? I live fairly far away from this family now and will not be able to make it back "home" for the funeral and I feel that I must do something! I would appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks in advance.
Why was the insurance to go to your deceased
brother's children? Was there a stipulation somewhere? Don't know everything about all the ins and outs, but beneficiaries listed on life insurance, CDs, etc. take precedence over a will. You can Google it. Unless there was some language 'if a child predeceases me, that child's shares of such and such will be equally divided between his/her surviving children and this is intended to supercede any listed beneficiaries on life insurance, etc. that may not have been changed on such' in the will, then I would think you would be the only beneficiary left anyway, and even if that language was in a will, still very difficult to override documented beneficiaries on that kind of stuff in a will. That is why it is SO important to be sure beneficiaries on life insurance, CDs, etc. are correct and updated if you want to spare people confusion and grief after you're gone.
No sisters, 1 brother deceased, just me
NM
My deceased husband visits in dreams and
I am remarried, to one of his best friends.
I might add that grandparents on paternal side are deceased so
only ones around are mine but that doesn't seem to matter to them.
Reminds me of a story about my deceased husband
We had his grandchildren staying at our home and what a handful, 3 of them, ages 13, 8 and 10. The 10 year old was acting out and threatened to call the police on his g'father (my hubby) when the g'father had done nothing for him to say that. The g'father told him go ahead but he would make the kid wish 1000 times he had never picked up the phone to call in the first place. That seemed to work pretty well as the kid just looked at the phone and did not make that call.
How to split insurance with a deceased person?
My brother was dead. First I knew nothing of the insurance money. They got in touch with me. They gave me half and spent a year trying to find the children (2) of my deceased brother. After a year and they could not locate, they got in touch with me again and sent me the remainder. Any more questions?
um, what about deceased hubby family and $millions she was fighting for?

Married good friend of my deceased husband
I knew him for over 30 years and yet didn't know him. He is very quiet, reserved, shy and when husband died called after 12 days to invite me to the zoo- I had no idea he had ever seen me to tell the truth. Bottom line months later he told me had loved me since the first day he saw me and "just waited."
Nancy Grace
She is an interesting person. I believe that she is still on maternity leave. She recently gave birth to preemie twins, her first pregnancy at the age of 48 or so.
Nancy Drew
My daughter is 9 and in 4th grade and loves the Nancy Drew books. She got into them after seeing the movie from last year starring the teen Emma Roberts (she had a show on the Nickelodeon channel). The movie I thought was really cute and old-fashioned. She really likes the "mystery" genre at this point. I personally never was into Nancy Drew but liked my mom's old Trixie Belden mystery books which were similar.
Nancy Drew
My goodness, they go for big bucks on e-bay! Try that, then donate to your local library; however, they may give them away if they already have them. FYI.
Her mother is a selfish woman who wants nothing but her deceased daughter's money....
she was booed at her daugther's funeral because she tried to stop the whole thing, once again, while they were in the procession of going to the chapel...she is a horrid woman as far as i am concerned...i feel bad that she lost her daugther and grandson but other than that she can crawl back under the rock that she came out of...
My now deceased husband brought his friend home, now my hubby
Was it love at first sight? Not for me but years later after the death of the previous one, my now husband (he never married, no kids) told me he had loved me from the very first day he saw me. I did not even know he saw me. We are talking 30 more years and the weight, well I will just leave at the 30+ years.
Any Nancy Drew fans?
When I shopped for one of my nieces at Circuit City, I stumbled on a Nancy Drew computer game. I don't have kids, so I'm out of the loop I know, but I thought that was cool. We loved those books when we were kids, but I don't know if my sister has introduced her daughter yet.
My niece is 9, and youngest recommended age is 10. But it was only $20, so we got her one other little hand-held game that was only about $6, so at least she can play that right away.
Nancy Drew books
My daughter used to read those when she was young.
Okay - don't laugh but WHO is Nancy Grace??
Never heard of her - is she national?
My 7-year-old just got into Nancy Drew, got her -sm
first one the other day with a gift card from her uncle. She knows I love mysteries and is getting into them herself now; so yes, young girls still read Nancy Drew!
Nancy Drew - the original ones from the 1930s
I loved A Wrinkle in Time, too, and the Trixie Belden books, also the original ones. And the Bobbsey Twins.
Am I telling my age here? 
I remember when Nancy Reagan had a double mastectomy
and if I remember correctly, she was only diagnosed with it in 1 side. Not that you have cancer but I remember thinking and talking about her at that time I thought have a bilateral mastectomy was the way I would do in case of this ever happening, plus as aggressive chemo and whatever. Up to now, no further problem with her and I thought she made the right decision, just to be rid of the concern about the other breast eventually having to go back again. By the way, had hysterectomy, not for tumor but unending bleeding and probably best thing I ever did, vaginal route, really no down time, no pain (unlike before). Good luck with your decision.
Knew about breaking Nancy Kerrigan's kneecaps
I knew (the world knew) about her having Kerrigan's kneecaps broken but I meant is she still breaking kneecaps? *LOL* but not really funny, I know....
she seemed like such trailer park trash (not insulting the good folk who DO live in trailer parks, only the TRASHY ones).........and I guess that never DID change for Tonya, eh.....
It's all about choices in the life, I do believe.........
Tidbit of information, Regans wife, Nancy
was pregnant when they married, their daughter. This was his second marriage, married to Jane Wyman before this one.
Please watch Nancy Grace tonight. She will have the tragedy that I sm
asked everyone to pray about 2 days ago - the family who lives 2 street over in Parkville, MD, who had 5 family members die in a head-on crash returning home from a Christmas trip to Michigan.
This is such a horrific, tragic accident.
I never watch Nancy, but curious as to what the show is about. If you want to see photos of this precious family you can visit www.myspace.com/bhjlv
This precious family's story should warn everyone about the dangers of drinking...Have a great night everyone.
I love Nancy Grace. working, but will try to catch this one later
thanks for telling us about it!
Last night on Nancy Grace they reported a lot of the women are SM
on Welfare, and that the young boys work construction jobs and then turn all the money over to the leaders of the compound. Someone earlier posted that these are members of the Mormon church, but my cousin, who died in 1999 was Mormon and her husband who visited our family 2 years after her death (they lived on the opposite coast) told us that the Mormon church absolutely no longer tolerates polygamy. He has been Mormon all his life.
Do young girls still read Nancy Drew books? - sm
I know I read them when I was around 10 or 11, but that was 30 years ago and I am not sure what girls read these days. I am trying to find someone who would really appreciate them because I believe my mom buying me my first one truly led to a love of reading that continues today (true crime no less!). I may just donate them to our local library. Any other ideas? 
Nancy Snyderman, Chief Medical Correspondent for MSNBC just
release a book "101 Medical Myths and Maladys; the ones that are true remedies and ones that are folklore. Good read. I highly suggest it.
