A brief note to Physicians Mutual

Dear Physicians Mutual,

My father, who had life insurance with you, died in 2005. We received the insurance payment from you after we provided proof that my father was, indeed, dead. Kaputt. No more. Pushing up daisies. He had kicked the bucket. So on and so forth. Deceased. (In fact, he was in a similar condition to the parrot in this video.)

Today, I received a letter from you. It was addressed to my father (see above regarding his current, and everlasting, condition). In this letter, you offered a welcoming back to my father. You offered a new insurance plan for him, with discounts, bells and whistles, and fanfare.

Again. Note what I said above. He’s dead. You paid out the insurance for him. How do you propose you put life insurance on someone who’s deceased? While I’d be all for him coming back for a while, I’m fairly confident (100%, in fact) that he won’t be returning.

I think this is a case of one of your departments not knowing what the other is doing. While I’m certainly not angry or upset over the letter (in fact, I found it to be pretty funny), you might want to look into the left arm / right arm coordination. Something is clearly messed up, unless you all know something about dead people that I don’t.
