[Rockhounds] AD- Downsizing

[Tim Fisher]

I'm gonna put it in my will is after they pick out what they want to hold
onto, give the entire caboodle including my shop, equipment etc. to our
local rock club to sell for a percentage of the proceeds. Our club has done
that very successfully and everyone walked away satisfied. The important
thing is that it wasn't left up to someone who as you said might throw
everything in the dumpster.

Larry,

I'm with you.  I am doing the same thing.  It is somewhat painful but as I
sell or give away my pieces, I have some fond memories and stories to pass
along, and assuming I finish divesting of my collection before I die, I'll
know that everything went to someone who wanted it and it won't all get
thrown out by whoever manages my estate.

Best,
Don
