I posted earlier about having to help clean out my grandmother's stuff and helping my parents do the same. Both experiences inspired me to deciliter. I will say that for those of us who have to help our families go through this, be prepared for your family trying to "gift" things that are important to them on to you and when you decline because you do not want more stuff you may be accused of having no sentimentality. I went through this with my parents and I simply had to hold my ground. I accepted two things that did hold special meaning to me, but all other items I declined. I refused to allow their things to become my obligation to house for the next several decades.
