[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I guess I am the only one who things this is NBD. My parents both died suddenly and unexpectedly within months of eachother. My sister and I were left to clean out 40+ years of worldly possessions. We kept what we wanted, donated some and tossed some. It took a couple weeks but we weren't overly burdened by this. It felt like we were able to honor our parents by taking care of this for them.[/quote]no, you are not the only one [/quote] I think the people who get upset are those who also have difficulty disposing of items. So if their parents don't do the hard sorting job, making sure that items get sent to appropriate caretakers who will love and cherish the cut glass, the real wood furniture, their china that no one wants, all the books... then the children need to do it and they resent it because they can't just throw it all away. They feel they need to respect the objects and find them a good home.[/quote]
