When someone you care about dies, ideally you can give yourself time to reflect on their life and mourn them in your own way. You want to allow yourself to process all of your emotions about your relationship with them, and celebrate the life they lived.
Unfortunately, life never slows down after someone dies, instead it almost seems to speed up, as you are quickly asked to make decisions about funeral arrangements, tie up loose ends involving life insurance policies and even begin to make plans for managing the estate of the deceased.
All of these decisions are stressful on their own, but when you combine them with the psychological and emotional impact of grieving the person who you care about, these tasks can become almost overwhelming.
Take steps to minimize your stress as much as possible while you are still actively mourning. If your loved one lived out-of-town, don't uproot your life to sort through their estate, instead pay professionals for moving assistance and they can move the entire estate for you. Instead of driving hours away to sort through what items should be sold or throw out and what items should be distributed to loved ones, you can have the estate moved to a local storage area where you can sort through items in your own time, at your convenience.
Work with a shipping company that can provide custom crates and boxes to protect valuables. Ask how they package valuables. Make sure you hire someone who can manage the moving job from start to finish, so you don't find yourself burdened with another task.
