Yes, my parents stuff after all 3 of us siblings had been through the big house and my father's carers had after (we let them) and then the people buying the house did, still had 7 tonnes left - about 2.5 times a normal house the house clearance company said. They recycle and resell what they can and tip the rest. They found a medical skeleton from the 19840s a real one of my father's. We thought we had been through every single cupboard in a very big house but this was in the loft of the garage. Anyway they threw it out as apparently if they had notified the authorities it can hold up a house sale for 3 months (it was definitely from his medical school days, not a murder). These days young doctors work on plastic ones.

[@valkyrie1066]

my father divested himself of all of the "sentimental" stuff when mom went into the hospital. all the photos, all her keepsakes. It was "her junk." I got a check, but not one of the items my mom told me she'd be leaving to me when she died. Everything was sold or trashed. All of our baby pictures, etc. the ruby birthstone ring she was so proud of, and left to me, wasn't worth very much money. But considering how much they sold it for, I would have loved to actually HAVE IT. She was reduced to her belongings, which were then all sold to strangers. (BEFORE she died, mind you) I have a photo of her. That's it. Not sure about their family relationships, but I would have LOVED to have had any of the things my mother saved hoping to give them to me. (None of the items were expensive, or actually moved that bottom line for him.) Now....that said, my mom wasn't much of a hoarder. She didn't have storage units full. So, THAT may have had something to do with it, as well. I WOULD have gone through that; and yes, probably sold MOST of it. No way would I have gotten rid of a few of those pieces. So, sentimental yes, but also not much of a hoarder. My practicality lead me to claim my grandmother's old mixer. I used it thoughout my life, and then when my daughter entered cooking school, it's the one she used. She's now a professional baker. We still have the mixer, though it's now an antique.....still works like a Kitchen Aid should. YES It's over four decades old. Some stuff you just don't throw away.

[@LeonaLinscott-cy6dz]

Some people can be so cold. I agree 💯 with your sentiments. I can't imagine being left with only one photo of my mother ON PURPOSE, but it is almost exactly what I have.

People, when your relatives get elderly, please stop giving them holiday decorations, figurines, bric a brac, potpourri burners, picture frames, perfumes and colognes, and tons of other things that will only collect dust. They are pretty to open up and then, they really don't need them or have a place for them. My mom had SO much of that stuff in her house after she died, please, honor your relatives with your love and by staying in touch and giving them things they CAN use like a gift card or take them out for a meal. A relative asked what to get my mom for Christmas and I suggested a Bissell electric floor sweeper (about $35). The relative instead got her a potpourri burner she never used. I bought Mom the Bissell sweeper and she used it every day for her last few years and loved it.

I used to work in an antique store in the 1990s to the early 2000s that housed 132 individual antique dealer's booths. The antique dealers would mainly go to estate sales, which most of the time it would be an older person who died, and left tons of things never used or things that were 60, 70 etc. years old in remarkable condition. It doesn't mean necessarily the person was a hoarder. A lot of people went through the depression, and that generation didn't throw anything away. A hoarder is a person who is mentally ill, and they pack their homes with complete garbage and junk to the point its beyond unlivable. If you watch those reality shows on real hoarders, you will understand there is a difference. The problem is the trend today, especially among millennials, is to lump people who accumulated things over many, many years in their lifetimes or just being an antique collector to be mislabeled a hoarder. For years people understood the difference, but now if you don't live your life following a Maoist like philosophy, which everyone must conform, which is ultra-minimalist MOD, lifeless, and sterile homes and interiors, then you are lambasted and ridiculed. HGTV, has become an example of that BS conformity. I'm so grateful to those generations who accumulated things over the years and didn't throw anything away becuase of them, we have tangible pieces of history left for posterity. They were unknowingly being historic preservationists.

[@maroulio2067]

so true- the items were not soiled or garbage- the deceased probably had a large house originally

[@chellesnail]

Perfectly said! You said everything I had been trying to say :) Historic Preservationist is the word! Hoarder is just hoarder of a lot of useless grotty junk, definitely huge difference. I have kept a lot of stuff of value that I hope people will realise is valuable in the future and forms part of the more recent history (I'm from the later generation, born in 1979) and I have discovered things I have that still work, are no longer made or no longer made in good quality and it made me realise how glad I was to have kept these things like some art materials/equipment for my art studio. I'm so glad to read your comment and that you are grateful to those who preserved things no longer made :) exactly what I have been thinking for awhile! :)

[@dobreangel]

I like your point. I also like valuable things (but not hoarding useless things) And it is funny how you said the homes of the minimalists are sterile and lifeless. When I look at their videos, they have nothing of value, just store decor that is so lame. Looking at the exteme minimalists reminds me of Claus Shwab and his "by 2030 you will own nothing and you will be happy about it". When I travel, I live with 1 suitcase and trust me, the walls are bare, everything is cheap décor, and I want to go home! I can't imagine living in a home that loos like a hotel. And minimalism is not about saving money either because 1) they get rid of useful thigs; 2) they need to replace them and the replacement cost is always more that what the item was originally purchased for.

I inherited my best friend's house (was his parents) after he died. No hoarding here but it was a treasure trove of life from the 30s and 40s. Lots of collectables. The advantage that I had at the time was the TIME to go through it all. The house was slated to be razed by the state for a new bridge so I had plenty of time to get through the stuff - keep or sell what had value.

[@janesmith9024]

Although when my parents died we cleared their house of 50 years or what we wanted of it and just about nothing had any value. It became a joke with me in the end - even the fairly new electric stair lift had been built around corners so it could only go for scrap. Even 1970s lava lamp just about no value. A few things might have made £5 on Ebay but not enough to justify selling. My parents were just not into possessions or jewellery or paintings. My sibilings did let me have my father's car as I spent 100 hours winding up the estate

[@swannsong578]

My 90 year old mother passed last year. A couple years earlier she had inherited a large amount of money. She didn’t need the money and didn’t know what to do with it and eventually she became obsessed with tv shopping. The shopping served a “purpose” in her life, since she was housebound, and each shipment gave her something to look forward to. She had stopped giving gifts to family, saying the money was hers to spend as she wished and she wasn’t going to give anything away. When she passed her 3 story home was full of unused (and sometimes unopened) items. Cleaning out her home was difficult and sometimes an adventure, finding things we didnt know she had purchased. It was a long process and we did get to the point where we had to close our eyes and just load up things for donation. Its not that we don’t/didn’t care about her things or the importance they represented to her. Its just that for most of us, we are getting up there in years ourselves and need little in the way of material things by this point in our lives. We did our best to distribute her items to multiple generations, but there was so much. Had she not spent so much on unnecessary items, the money could have been used for providing educational opportunities for generations of our family. But, as she said, it was her money to do as she wished.

[@hummingbird275]

Swannsong It gave her something to “ look forward to “, it sounds like. ♥️

[@RAPTUREATTWILIGHT]

Sounds like she was bitter and selfish. To spend money on things that didn't mean much to her was her way of stopping anyone else getting that money, even her own close relatives. That's why money exposes the true nature of someone's heart. She is in hell now because she chose to live for herself and not be kind to others. She received it through inheritance so why did she feel she couldn't pass on that same blessing to her own family? Because bitterness and selfishness filled her life. She is in hell now. Let her example be warning to everyone who seeks their own sake rather than that of God's or even relatives. She withheld because she was judgemental and when we judge wrongly we act wrongly. Rather than anyone saying I'm judgemental by writing this, know that your actions speak louder than words, and people need to learn to zip it and look at situations with righteous judgement lest you let your own life fall into same pitiful end.

[@monicaadkins2449]

I occasionally buy units. It breaks my heart when I come across units with such personal belongings that you know people have invested huge amounts of time into organizing and/or collecting. To have nobody care about your valuable time and care put into keepsakes or collections and hobbies is very disheartening. Many times I'll try to give belongings (photos, albums, urns of ashes) back to the people running the facility to contact the family for a return. Sometimes they will, other times they refuse, stating they have the family or person multiple discounts, offers, and second chances and they no longer care. Other times you come across information and you just know the person either went to jail or passed away from the way their stuff was hurriedly packed as if drawers were just dumped into boxes. (Food, mail, etc) from family or friends and for whatever reason payments stopped. A couple of years ago, my boyfriend bought a couple in a neighboring county outside the city and i could tell this stuff had been so cared for and tons of time had been invested organizing it all. I'll bet she had 5 boxes or more of photo albums and framed pictures. Tons of boxes full of files and certificates and lessons from being a retired teacher. Yearbooks and scrapbooks. Old furniture and knick knacks. It's hard for me to throw any of that out. As a matter of fact, I believe I have a few boxes in my personal shed at home with the hopes of someday returning them to families. I just haven't made the time. You are totally correct though! I've learned from these experiences to stop wasting my life away organizing thinks I find value in that others won't. And the things I really care for like my coin collection or especially my costume jewelry collection needs time spent labeling, documenting, and pricing value because I recognize the the majority of society just sees a nickel as a 5 cent nickel or jewelry as worthless unless it's stamped with 14K. It would really be discarded for nothing at a yard sale or spent on a bag of chips!

I know here daughter has respected her works hard full-filling her wishes and I got the message from another cousin she's handling the estate and selling her house . So I respect my cousin Lisa through it all .
