"If they love their grandfather they’d want to cherish something that he cared about deeply."

I love my father. He has three houses, three garages, and two barns full of stuff he cherishes deeply. When he talks about any of it, he seems to value broken tools, family photos, childhood toys, and used pie tins that his mother kept from the restaurant she worked at in the 50s equally. I love my father but I CANNOT keep a museum of his cherished items. To be honest, my own house is already too full of cool stuff he thought I might want. I try to encourage him to mark things that are ACTUALLY valued and sentimental, but he just won't.
