Jewelry – Photographs – Furniture
“What are we gonna do with all this stuff?”
– Any Baby Boomer
When it comes to Family Heirlooms, a lifetime of accumulation leaves a mountain of mess to sort out:
- Which kid gets the grand piano?
- How about these old letters from grandpa?
- What about my jewelry?
- Artwork?
- Cars?
- This porcelain fine china set?
- Great Aunt Grace’s quilt?
- This rolltop desk?
- Timepieces: the grandfather clock & Rolex?
- This rocking chair?
- The sterling silver flatware?
- Grandma Izzy’s handwritten recipe book?
- My diaries?
- Uncle Bill’s military medals?
- The boxes full of photo albums?
- Baseball cards?
- Wedding gown?
- My favorite books?
- The gun collection?
- The 3rd generation cast iron skillet?
- Our family bible?
- The kitchen table? Would anyone want that?
Who should get what and why?
How do I make sure this piece finds its way to who I want to have it?
The last thing I want is the kids fighting over all these items after I’m gone.

***Final Thought: as you perform your Favorite Things cataloging it is also a great time to “let go” of some things. Consider creating 2 piles:
- Donate to charity
- Trash
You can’t take it with you. But you can make sure that it gets gifted to a loved one, given to charity, or kicked to the curb.
