  9. Interesting topic, I have a certain model in my will, I have also spent the last 3 years helping dispose of a collection that has sat in a basement for 20 years as the widow just couldn't move herself to disturb her husbands hobby. I also had to deal with the loss of my mother years ago and had planned in advanced for my brother to video tape her giving her gifts prior to her death which would have made the proportioning so much easier and a gift from the future to cherish as knowing the gift was from her heart, but my brother did not do it. So use the boy scout motto = Be Prepared greg
