List of recent deaths?

Hello BP! 

I have a interesting question. I have been driving-for-dollars every weekend. I found a house that I started marketing to. The owner had a realtor call me and was relatively aggressive in learning about how I found this property.

I told them honestly that I was just driving around looking for fixers. The realtor was friendly, but he seemed to be looking for a particular response.

After he opened up to me, he asked me if I was targeting this property because of his spouse's death. He stated that this owner received 25 other mailers that same time.

The realtor was asking me if I am aware of any sources that find information like this. The peculiar thing is the spouse isn't even on the title. What type of target list would produce this kind of information? Thanks in advance!
