[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My grandmother moved into assisted living.
My cousins, who are local to the area , have gone through her house "claiming" items and taking them out.
My siblings and I live 800-2500 miles away and have not claimed anything.
My parents, who live nearby my grandmother, are on vacation and will be back next week.
My dad, the executor of her estate, doesn't stand up for me and my siblings to make sure we have a few items from my grandmother and have not told the other side of the family to delay removing things from her house.

I want to email them telling them how selfish they were to do this without everyone participating...[/quote]

This exact situation happened to me on both sides.  On one side, we were to split the contents of my grandmother's house 3 ways.  Eventually the other two parties said I could have 4 items chosen from the house, not one third.  I decided to not make an issue of it and chose 4 things, modest things actually.  One of the four they said I could not have.  I suppose I could have gotten a lawyer and fought, but the estate had already dragged out for almost 4 years and I didn't have the money for a lawyer, and one of the other parties was a lawyer as well as being the executor and power of attorney.[/quote]
