I know there is a diverse population here so it's a good place to ask this question:
In clearing out my parents' house what should I keep? I can't, nor do I want to, keep everything. I know I have to keep paper until the will is probated and the taxes are done.
If you've had to do this, what do you wish you had kept? What was easy to toss? If you didn't do this, but another family member did, what do you wish they had given you?
A couple of friends have stated they were surprised by the things their kids took when invited to go thru Grandma's house - a muffin tin, a hair brush, a particularly ugly china figurine.
Every time I go to the house, I haul home another 50 lbs of stuff I'm going to have to give up someday. What should I keep?
