[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]The reality is, you should always assume that when someone dies, you will get NOTHING, no matter what they tell you. [/b]

Tell your mother no, you will not be BUYING your dead grandmother's jewelry off her and you are offended and disappointed that she'd have proposed that.

Tell your sister face to face (or over the phone) that you would really love that ring that your mom gave her, and your grandma promised it to you. Then let your sister decide whatever she decides. If she decides to keep it, you need to decide if your sisterly relationship is worth throwing away over a ring.

Then go cry to your best friend about how unfair the whole thing is before going to your lawyer to firm up your will where you designate exactly which of your children gets which pieces of your jewelry. [/quote]

I agree with the sentence in bold.  My mom had a sterling silver set.  It's in the will to me [signed by deceased father and living mother].  GM told DD she would get it.  Listed on homeowners policy as a specific item.  Meanwhile GM sold it for almost nothing and got cash-never took it off the policy.  Never even offered any of her children the chance to buy it.

Siblings and I requested her to write a letter confirming sale to insurer.  Did that months after POA removed from policy.   [/quote]
