Organized Chaos

Well, with a lot of help, we were able to reorganize, recycle and toss a lot of stuff last weekend. Mom Farr, Nic and Best by Farr are using the same garage for storage, and it was getting pretty deep and dirty over there. Adele and Rich came down for the express purpose of wading through Mom Farr's estate, and it was amazingly successful. We waded through boxes and boxes of treasures, sent a trailer load of items to local charities' thrift stores, bagged up a lot of trash and organized everything else for further review.

Dear Farr Grandkids- please look at the quilts and furniture in pics on this blog or on http://picasaweb.google.com/elnabelms/FarrEstatePics#
and email David or Adele of the items you're interested in. David's email is dfarr73@gmail.com and Adele's is mommadorsey@gmail.com. Each item is numbered, so you can refer to it by item or by description. If by chance two people want the same thing, we'll flip a coin, or something similar, to decide. When you contact them with a request, we will tag it for you, but please make arrangements to pick up your items by the end of September, 2010, or for those that live too far away, convince your parents to help! We'd like to see the kids come by and take a look- there are several tables of items you may want as a momento of Grandpa and Grandma Farr. There are enough quilts and afghans for each grandchild, the furniture is a little more limited, but what is available is shown on the website. If you're not interested in anything, please email David or Adele to let them know, so we are clear about your wishes.

Please share this with your siblings that may not get a message, We want everyone to have a chance to have something of Grandma and Grandpa's estate. I like the handmade things to remember them by, and thought you might too.
