My grandfather passed in 2011 at a nice facility in Parksville BC. I live in the U.S. quite a distance away (SC). We had lost contact and I recently found out he passed in 2011. I don't want anything but answers. When I spoke with the facility they said they couldn't tell me who had POA and made his arrangements. I want to find out who had this so I can ask personal questions and make sure he didn't die alone. Any ideas would be appreciated. Also, we are not people of means so spending a lot of money on an attorney is not feasible.
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays
If he had no one to care for him and died alone, what will it serve you to know that? And if some other relative or friend was looking out for him they will probably be p.o.ed that you are questioning their decisions now, I know I would be.
Have you been able to locate an obituary to determine which family members are still alive?
As to who held POA, I'm not sure it makes any difference at this point. Did you have any specific concerns in this regard?
