<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Just Carl, post: 373283, member: 4552&quot;]Must be a local thing. Possibly in a town with a small population. Ever see the obits in the Chicago papers? I also asked these questions at all the banks where I have safe deposit boxes. The answers were always the same. Anyone that is listed as renters of the box can access those boxes anytime they want. They can also pay for those boxes for hundreds of years if the bank is still there and they are too. </p><p>I asked at one of my banks about them checking the obits daily and was basically laughed at. No, not an actual laugh, but kiind of a silly grin and then questioned is this some kind of joke. With Chicago and suburbs having approximately 8 million people, imagine the size of the obits in all the papers. Remember that every suburb has their own paper(s) also. Charter One bank for instance would have probably 50 newspapers on a desk for someone to just check obits. Then naturally a list of present customers which also changes almost daily. Yeah, right.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
