Why send a check at all? Why wasn’t the money wired?

Most 401k’s will mail checks when people want to roll funds over. Sometimes to the receiving companies, sometimes directly to the client. They won’t even overnight it or put a tracking number on it either. Just snail mail hope it shows up some day.

Not the case:

It was sent from his father's estate by his brother, George Kavaratzis

I'm guessing your answer to that lies in the word "retiree".
