Q : When my mother died

12 years ago,
I remember the frustration of waiting on
hold for a representative at the Social
Security office to help me. My father
recently passed away. Is there a good
number to call, or a website which
will allow me to handle my father's
information in a less frustrating manner?

A: Try the website www.socialsecurity.gov .

If there are questions that arise,
