Jeeze. That's awful. And while my stuff seems like an overwhelming load when I contemplate moving it, it's a little reassuring to know that it's nowhere near that level of madness.

There was a similar incident in Des Moines several years ago. It took several weeks to notice the absence of the family member and find the body. I helped clean out the house. It was... unpleasant.
