I am trying to locate a policy for my mother, Jean E Fyler
McGowan. Her policy was gained through her membership with the American Legion Auxiliary of Florida. She passed in June of 2012 due to dementia and phenomena.
It was during this time that I too was in a nursing home due to a massive heart attack and a quad by-pass.
All of our possessions were packed away. I have not been able to locate her policy nor her policy number. Her D.O.B
was 30 August 1922 and her social was 068-16-3598. Jean's residents prior to her passing was 7349 Ulmerton
Road, Lot 1067, Largo Florida 33764
My name is Claire E. Knight, I am her daughter and I was listed as her beneficiary. I do have a copy of her death certificate.
How do I get the information that is needed regarding this policy so that I can place a request for payout to cover for her funeral expenses?
I can be reached at angel_magic4u2@yahaoo.com
Thankyou for your assistance in this matter

How can I find out if a deceased family member had any life insurance?
If you suspect a deceased family member had any life insurance, but you cannot find a policy, there are several things you can do to find policies. If the deceased had a policy through work you can contact the Human Resoures department. They will know what benefits the deceased had. You can also check with any credit cards companies the deceased used. There may have been death insurance through the credit card. For individual policies you can use one of the paid search companies to find the policy for you. Do a search using "find lost life insurance policy" or "missing life insurance policies" and you will find some reputable search companies. You should be aware that insurance companies do not turn policies over to State Unclaimed Property accounts unless they know the person has died and they cannot find the beneficiary. So searching unclaimed asset sites is a waste of time. The beneficiary has to find the policy if they hope to collect any benefits. That's why it's usually easiest to use a paid service.
