My Uncle passed away and I am the executor of the will. We have gone to City Hall to register the will and start probate. My question is my Uncle told my daughter to tell me, (this was the first day he went in the hospital) to clean out his safe deposit box if anything happens. But did not tell her where it was or where the key is. I asked him a few days later about the location and key, he told me WE didn't have to worry about it right now WE would take care of it later. Well, now he has passed and I am trying to get everything straight. We had gone to the three (3) banks we KNOW he dealt with and they all say he does not have a SDB. The oldest bank account he had was Country Wide which has been taken over by Bank of America. We are at a COMPLETE loss as to where to go from here? BOA told us to look through his bills and old checking accounts for evidence of the box. No Luck! Mentally he was sharp as a tack right up til the very last week, so I have no doubt there IS a box, just don;t know how to find it. ANY HELP or SUGGESTIONS are GREATLY APPRECIATED!
THANK YOU in advance
