Here’s your chance to ask Gayle and Ed any question you’re curious about. It need not be related to this survey’s topic(s).Comment:

I am age 74 and to relatives this year I am giving my 1800s family photos and genealogy history to cousins. This passes family photos forward. Having no children, these photos and mementos move forward in my family future.
Future topics

Having no children, I have many mementos, work awards, university graduation tassels no one wants. I hate dumping memories of my accomplishments.

Where do I get rid of this? Trash anyway? My attorney will probably dump it after my funeral anyway. Any suggestions?
