It's entirely possible--there was one policy nobody had known about that paid off when he died. I guess we're suspicious that it's been so long, and the whole business about all the contacts being located in different states. We've decided my wife is going to call the lawyer listed on the Texas Bar web site on Monday and see what he has to say.
