Getting ready for an Auction

This was my office in the lower level of our house before we started to move up to Brookdale. The desk has been moved, the name tags have been taken down, but little else has changed. We met with Linda Underwood about an auction and I spent all afternoon putting things in the bucket and boxes in this room. Elaine and Carolyn worked all afternoon upstairs doing preliminary putting things together. We are satisfied that having an auction is the way to go in getting this excess "merchandise" (as Linda calls it, is the way to go. We visited with all 3 boys this evening and they are supportive of going that way. They each have a few special things which they would like to have.
 Our old '92 Buick LeSabre was discussed with Linda and she thought it may be a bit of a "drawing" item at an auction. We bought it new, kept detailed records of every dollar spent on it and drove it some 160,000 miles without ever have to add any oil between changes. It has 4 new tires a couple years ago and has always been serviced by Rolfsmeiers and R & J's later. It is a great 25 year old and many miles still in it.
