When my dad passed away I didn’t know where to start. He owned a house, ran his own business, and had a checking account that I was now responsible for. In addition to that there were monthly bills coming to the house, and an open loan that he was still in the process of paying off.
The stress and confusion of dealing with these items only compounded on the feelings of grief that one goes through when dealing with the death of a parent.
My dad didn't have a will or trust, so I also embarked on the lengthy process of going through probate while also figuring out how to manage his personal affairs.
