One of the most difficult aspects of having to deal with what is left behind is the concern about what you would have wanted.  What would you feel or think about this or that being disposed of?  This book walks you through the different options and the process of letting your loved ones know what your wishes are.  Unlike a Will, this book deals with the material everyday items used and kept during your life.  It also allows you to do the one thing you can't after you're gone.  Give the family permission to handle all your worldly possessions in a manner that may have been too difficult to do without receiving it. 

This book also gives them permission to just get rid of it! Something they are loath to do unless they know you'd be okay with them doing so.

This book is a revision of the original book titled A Guide to Dealing with Family Treasures so you kid won't have to.
