[QUOTE="Marie Forjan, post: 29417, member: 147"]When my parents moved out of a house they were in for 40+ years into independent living we were overwhelmed! There was a box of photos my father collected over 70 years and we were so tired everyone wanted to toss it. I couldn't. After things calmed down I made piles of photos that should go to each of my brothers and sisters (I am the 6th of 9) and sent off a package to each. After my parents passed away we had a lot of fine jewelry to divy up, not everyone was close by so we couldn't get together to pick. I went to the lawyer's office and took a picture of each piece. Then made a PDF showing each piece, the appraiser's description and valuation. Each piece had a code. We all contacted the lawyer with our choices. If any item had more than 1 request, the choosers talked to see who would get it. I think the happiest person was the lawyer, I half expected him to hire me to do the same for other clients :-)[/QUOTE]
