I usually just disable the account until I know that no one left any 
important documents with it.  I just leave it disabled until I know it 
made it to the backups, and then blow it away.  If you use Webmin, it 
will erase the home directory, samba account, and unix account in one 
fell swoop; I think they use a perl script, it might be easier to pick 
that up than reinvent the wheel.
