What to do with grandmas stuff?

We collect things throughout our lives that we find meaningful. Most of our junk is just stuff thats fun to have. Then we inherit grandmas stuff. The old blanket that you napped under when you were three. The vase she use to put daffodils in on her kitchen table. A pin she used to always put on her winter coat lapel.

What happens to these items when we to pass, and the original memory passes as well. They are after all just objects, and many times not valuable.

And when you have no children to tell the tales of those lazy naps at grandmas house, it seems a sad passing.
No one will care that the double wedding ring quilt, slightly tattered at the edges, was the race track you won the Indy 500 on - While sleeping soundly of course. And the little glass black vase with poorly painted roses was what Grandpa gave Grandma on their wedding day as a gift. How sad that it will be passed up for a quarter at the Good will. And just looking at the Desert Rose plates brings the smell of Turkey dinner to mind.

They are all just things you know. But maybe those memories are adrift out there and will jog a smile from someone when it bumps into their dreams when they are napping on that quilt they found at an estate sale or the pie will taste extra yummy off the desert plate they found at an antique store.
