How many of us have made it PERFECTLY CLEAR to our families what to do with
our stuff when the inevitable happens?
Even if I haven't designated where it goes, my wife and kids understand that

Grandfather's or Uncle's house. Tired furniture and dishes to the goodwill
store, a few obvious family relics kept, and everything else in the
dumpster.
