It is very possible.

I think of my Grandmother. She outlived all of her children, siblings, husband, and all other relatives with the exception of my brother, my mother, and myself.

If not for the three of us, when she became ill with Dementia, nobody would have ever known. She's have likely starved to death and nobody would have been the wiser until the collection agencies came calling.
