[quote=Anonymous]As others have observed, the important thing is to locate the “important things,” (1) money (check clothes in the closet), jewelry, artworks and other valuables; (2) important documents like wills and powers of attorney; and (3) a limited number of sentimental items along with photos, etc., if you’re so inclined. When the time comes, you go in and get what you want/need, give any siblings or others a deadline to do the same; and then call the junk men and/or the dumpster company. Everything goes. Forget donation, forget “buy nothing,” forget garage sales, forget (in most instances) “that’s worth money.” Be ruthless. It goes quickly. Hire people if you’re unable to do it yourself. You’ll have a few regrets, but very few. [/quote]
