Notify Creditors

Creditors should be notified promptly following a death. If there is to be a delay in meeting debts or installment payments, you may be able to file for extensions. Many creditors are sympathetic to these situations and are willing to grant your requests. If credit insurance or mortgage insurance policies were in force, purchases made on credit (vehicles, furniture, etc.) or the home mortgage may be paid off by the insurance. You should ask your lending institution.

It is important for this to be completed promptly after a death. If this brings up any questions or uncertainty, we urge you to contact us for assistance. Sherman's Flatbush Memorial Chapel is available to answer any questions you may have during this difficult time.
