[QUOTE="say_it_slowly, post: 260538, member: 50"]I'm very sorry that you feel hurt by the disposition of family items. In the dispersal of my own parents belongings after their deaths things went incredibly smoothly and I'm so grateful. I've known many families that have sad stories about how dispersals went including in some of my own extended family. I'm very sorry, it makes sad times even harder and the resulting hard feeling seem difficult to overcome. There are, of course, many considerations including whether the money from the sale of items is helpful in offsetting the debt of the deceased or for that matter, of the living left behind. What I really wanted to say is that people seem to have very different opinions on what value items have and how they view sentimentality versus monetary or other value. It's helped me try to keep my own emotional reaction in check when I've tried to remember that.[/QUOTE]
