I play that same game. AND I have the same family members. They don’t care about the treasures they have and they won’t give them up. My uncle just happened to be driving by his mother’s apartment one day and saw boxes setting outside. They are all photo albums and memorabilia. He rescued them. Dismantled them (weep here) and sent them all out to the pictured parties (who didn’t care, nor record the treasures) so we have incomplete files. I should be happy we have some. I wish that in this day of easy reproductions that people would just at least get the stuff copied and distributed. All my treasures have been distributed as best I can so that if anything happens to my records SOMEBODY will still have them. Thanks for sharing your blog. Wish you were in my family. kathie/kate
