At least then, he wouldn't have left us with a huge problem to deal with in his wake.
- Brian_K_White 4y agoI have less than zero sympathy for this sob story, which is exactly appropriately reciprocal to the level of respect and understanding you are granting to your family member. There is absolutely no way to turn someone else's pile of books that you don't approve of into any kind of harm done to you. Not even through this route of death and bequest. Sell the house for whatever it fetches wothout laying a finger on it. Then the horrible books are not your problem. Oh, you want to extract more money from the sale? Or you want to use it yourself? That is still not his obligation. You are essentially saying you wish your parent gave you more, but trying to twist it into somehow they cost you something. Listen to yourself!
