Checked on BBB and contacted a few but am waiting for a call/email back.
Note that you must notify IRS of the alternate valuation date by the proper form, it's not assumed or automatic. Also, this alternate date applies to all assets in the estate, and may have a tax impact on the beneficiaries. Talk with a tax advisor.
