Man lay dead in bed for two years

glatt · 08-27-2004, 02:39 PM

Here's an interesting one, similar to the sad couch lady. A guy up in Canada died in bed and just lay there for two years before he was discovered. He had a pension payment automatically deposited in his bank account, and his bills were also paid automatically from the same account. His condo neighbors wondered where he was, but everyone thought he must be OK, because he was paying his bills.

The only one who should have noticed was the post office, because he wasn't collecting his mail, but they didn't tell anyone.

I knew there was a reason I resist e-bills with automatic payment. At least the traditional way, you know your creditors will care if you're dead or alive.

When I don't hear from slang for more than two weeks in a row, I have someone check, just to be sure this hasn't happened.

a friend of mine who was an OTR driver stayed in a parking lot for a week before the cops came around to tell him he had to move his rig. unfortunately, he had died in his sleep the first night.

What a sad commentary on our modern society. The two years laying dead is nothing alongside the lonely years he must have spent before he finally met his end. Poor man!

Not everybody is a victim you know.

He may have been a right bastard.

All the more reason to pity him. What a waste to spend your life so that people hate you and you die alone and unnoticed!
