Dad got a letter for a "life saving test" to determine if he was at risk for stroke.
Normally, this would just be kind of morbidly funny, since we all know how mailing lists persist. However, he did not get it at HIS address. He got it at MINE, which is only associated with his name at companies that have been told he's dead, as I move them to the estate addresses, and the post office, which is forwarding and which also knows he's dead.
That means some company sold "his" address to these guys after his death. I assume whoever did it had no way to annotate in their computer (or someone failed to, but lack of support seems more likely) that, you know, this person is deceased. But it's still mildly aggravating.
Oh, well. It's not real harmful in the grand scheme of things, but...this probably means I can anticipate more junk mail to his name at this address, since if they sold it one place....
