• Find all of the victim's important legal documents. This includes his or her will, birth certificate, and social security card.
• Inform doctors and other invested parties of the passing. At this time you may want to inform the paper as well.
• Make plans for your loved one's remains. Never be afraid to ask for help in planning a memorial or funeral service. The support of those you care about can be a tremendous aid through such a trying process.
• Contact the executor of the will and the appropriate life insurance agency to begin the process of executing the will and collecting life insurance.
