108- Living Overseas When a Family Member Dies in the US

This isn't an easy one. This is challenging situation to face and there are some extra considerations (beyond the emotional loss) while we live overseas and our family member lives in the US. The services and paperwork all need to be completed or organized away from our "home base."

This isn't an "advice" episode but a personal account of facing this situation- to give you a heads up and some things to think about BEFORE you are facing this hurdle yourself.
