Things they don't tell you in Executor school -- it's a kindness to the doctors, hairdressers, etc., to cancel the appointments of the deceased. But it's still kind of awkward to do.
Oh wow. I probably would not have thought of that.
Things they don't necessarily teach the living: it is a kindness to your executor to actually keep a calendar instead of just, say, putting the reminder cards from your doctor in your wallet or on the fridge or wherever's handy.
Yep. I have her calendar, which made calling Dr. Robbins (opthalmologist) and Dr. Blair (podiatrist) quite easy. Unfortunately, her hairdresser is in the calendar as "Hair 10:30" so I'm going to have to do some sleuthing to find out where she's been going every 2 weeks on Friday mornings.
