What should I do? What would you do? My older brother left me his wallet and old records.Does anyone know who Loretta Lynn is? He has zillions of her records.SO please advise me.Vader.
For me, I kept a few beloved pieces, pictures, clothing (5-6 outfits) and a cabinet that my mom personally told me was left for me. She even went as far as telling a few of her friends to make sure I don't give away the cabinet so I kept it.
The rest of her clothing (lots of nice pieces), furniture, dishes, linen etc I donated to charity and her family who lives in another country who needed the items. This is what my mother would have wanted me to do. She always gave away to those in need.
Think about what your mom would have wanted you to do. All the best with your decision.
