What happens to the belongings of a dead person?
The executor will handle the payment of any expenses related to your estate until it is liquidated. He or she will also oversee the distribution of assets, including the sale of property and the payment of outstanding debts. The executor is usually a family member or other trusted party.
Who is the owner of my father’s house?
If it was joint with right of survivorship with another individual (e.g. your stepmother), then that surviving person would own the property. If the property was simply owned jointly, then that portion owned by your father would have passed to his estate. If he had a will, the terms of the will would control disposition of the property.

Where did my dad live at the time of his death?
Thank you for your time. They resided in South Carolina at the time of my dad’s passing. When it comes to inheritance, children usually fare better than stepchildren. Your father’s wishes were honored, I’m afraid to say.
How old was I when my father died?
Each stage of your journey will be completely different, and as you wander through your grief, emotions will come and go. It’s been nearly 11 years since my father died (I was 18 when it happened), so I think I can safely say I’ve been through it all; the shock, the sadness, the anger, the guilt, and, eventually, the acceptance.
