Evolution of Maurine Hamilton's signature

Nothing happened to Maurine Hamilton in 2004, except she moved in with her daughter Sylvia Hamilton.

No medical conditions warranting a hospital stay.

And yet her signature changes drastically from a straight across the line and long width signature to

an irratically up and down and short width signature

Unlawful Notary article :<wink-wink-notarization>: a document or check written out, for someone to take home, for someone else to sign...at another place or time...supposedly...

Both attorneys we have used in Austin employed the practice of notarizing in advance, "since we were all there", no matter how much we protested that we wanted to come back and sign it AFTER the document was finished and no matter how nervous the notary got. "Notarization-by-Convenience" seems to be common practice.
