Perhaps this might offend some here, but in my opinion, health issues (even death) are no excuse. A business (small or large) that receives the property of others should have a succession plan. Failure to do so is lazy and unprofessional, period.
[Bill: A surety bond guarantees that a business/contractor completes the work it/he was hired to do. Ever heard of a contractor advertise his business as "bonded and insured"? Yeah, that's what I am talking about.]
