Darrin -

Look for original sources first. Find out her name, track down her obituary. Read as much as possible about the case. Don't take relative's or family's statements at face value: see them for yourself.

The next part is more difficult: forensic reconstruction. What were her favorite hobbies? places? things? How much space does $60,000 in bills take up? Ask your bank manager or teller for this information.

Good Luck!

I would find space for $60,000.00.

Something else to be considered,
We had an elderly widow pass away from a heart attack in our town.
After her body was removed and the family became involved they realized her deceased husbands gold coin collection valued at approximately $20,000.00 was missing.
The police investigated and found that one of it's officers had been selling gold coins to dealers in a several hundred mile radius.
You have to fill out form when selling over a certain cash amount of gold and his name was on the forms.
He was also the first officer to respond to the call for a possible fatality at the house where the woman died.
They fired him as opposed to prosecuting him.
If he was just your average joe he would be in prison but that's kind of beside the point.
As much as You hate to think it law enforcement officers are not above temptation.
Finding $60,000,00 in cash on a dead body might be a bit too tempting to even an ordinarily honest cop or EMT.
Particularly if the husband was still looking for the purse after her death.
I'm not saying that is what happened, It's just another possibility.
I wouldn't give up the search but you have to look at it from all angles.

You're right

Do you really need to ask the bank manager how much space $60,000 takes up? If you dont have $100's, then use $1's, and pretend they are larger notes, then you will see exactly how much space it takes. Dont waste someones time with questions you can answer yourself.
