There was a good piece in the Wall Street Journal last week about the conundrum of what to do with household items and collectibles of seniors who are downsizing or who have passed away. In an earlier time it was assumed prized wood furniture, sets of china, crystal and flatware, and "collections" would be passed to heirs and received with joy. Now, that is often not the case.
