designed to assist the surviving spouse/significant other in dealing
with the myriad of paperwork required following the death of a loved
one (i.e., changing account names, titles, notifying Social
Security, pension plans, etc.). In many cases, paperwork was usually
handled by the deceased, leaving the survivor at a total loss. Class
