Column: Be careful when disposing personal property

When someone dies or transfers to assisted living, it is important to be careful on giving old furniture and personal affects to charity or selling items at a garage sale. It was recently reported that a trio of college students in New York earlier this year bought a lumpy couch for $20 at a Salvation Army store.

For more information visit http://petnetwork.org/summer-garage-sale

Column: Giving away your special collections

First make a list of your collections of special items. It could be antique furniture, old guns, special china or silverware, dolls, sculptures, old cars, baseball cards, etc.

Then consider meeting with the family before you decide which items will go to which family members (or friends). Maybe a beneficiary will prefer receiving cash instead of a collectible item.

Then think about which person will be the best choice for particular items. Which one will pass on to the grandchildren and future generations?
