European Stars and Stripes (Newspaper) - November 28, 1994, Darmstadt, Hesse                                Page 20 the stars and stripes monday november 28,1994 Hemom answer priceless not today s crossword dear Ann Landers your answer to a Rock and a hard place made my hair stand on end. The woman was having second thoughts about giving her Mother s heirlooms to her daughter  you told her she was obligated to do so. Are you still on vacation or have you taken leave of your senses the Mother made it Clear that Gayle who is to receive All her grandmother s treasures is unappreciative and her life is totally chaotic she also said Gayle has a weird assortment of Kooky friends who wander in and out of her House and have stolen Money and jewelry from her. V.  i doubt very much that the grandmother knew any of this when she talked about leaving her precious heirlooms to her granddaughter Gayle. Evidently the Mother treasures these things that belonged to her Mother and she wants them to stay in the family. Why would anyone consider giving heirlooms to  who will probably sell them or whose friends will steal them you should have told the Mother do whatever you feel comfortable with. If there is someone in the family who would appreciate those treasures As much As you and your Mother did by All Means let that person have these Fine pieces.,you will feel better and i am sure if grandmother knew she would be pleased.1 you be reversed yourself in the past Ann and i Ann Landerss Sfer dear Abby like so Many others who read your column i never thought i d write but the letter i read today inspired me. The woman who lost her father wrote about her Mother listening to the Telephone answering machine message taped just before her father died.

Ten years before she died just for fun she Sang with a blues band and she taped a song she loved to sing. It was some of these Days.
