Woman dead for threes before discovery

Just read a newspaper article about a woman in New York who was dead for three years before she was discovered. The article asked why someone did not notice her bills weren't paid. I would assume that she had all her accounts on prepaid and as long as her account had funds the bills continued to be paid. Mail would pile up at her mail slot but that would not trigger any thoughts that something was wrong because no one would be checking.
This is a reminder to keep in touch with people and to keep triggers going that would let people know that something might be wrong. What a terrible incident.
