<p>[QUOTE=&quot;The Old Hotness, post: 9596722, member: 83931&quot;]I got very little. Two kerosene lamps, my great-grandfather&#039;s flintlock shotgun, a really awful aluminum .22 pistol, a couple of whiskey jugs, and some other minor items. My aunt stole my great-grandfather&#039;s gold watch, which was supposed to go to me, and God knows what else. I am told her son has the watch.</p><p><br /></p><p>My sister stole a bunch of ancient photos from the family and then abandoned them in the house she used to live in, so I ended up with those without trying. No one has shown any interest in recovering them from me, perhaps because they are not worth anything.</p><p><br /></p><p>My revenge is buying better things than the ones my relatives took.</p><p><br /></p><p>Anyone who fails to make a list of items to leave to relations is inviting disaster. People will happily destroy their relationships with relatives in order to get a few pieces of mid-grade heirloom furniture and unremarkable jewelry. You find out what you mean to other people when a grandparent dies without proper estate planning.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
