    Nick for sure this is the right place to post.So sorry for your loss.Grief is such a personal thing for each of us to recover from. I do like Colin's idea and it seams you have the boat to dedicate for your daughter.
    I'm not sure how one goes about getting thier "mojo" back I do believe talking to others of your loss and grief help's
    Please use the forum as a sounding board

    Yesterday I recieved a number of phone call telling me my SIN(social insurance number)had been put on hold as there had been illegal use of it and I should press #1 to deal with the problem. FULL OUT SHAM.I informed the authorities of the calls and gave the phone numbers.
    There is a Quot: There's a sucker born every minite.
    It seams to me the caller is looking for that person to believe the call is legit and give the SIN number to get fixed.
    As I think most people go through life looking to do right in the world. Some find it easier to scam people out of whatever be it money or possessions.
    Where does that come from.
    How do they learn to work the scam.
    Is it passed on within the family.
    Is it just find the easiest way to get the things you want.
    Don't work find someone to give you thier money.
    Just me thinking out loud .

    With this subject seams we are looking at the old saying.
    YOU CAN'T TAKE IT WITH YOU.
    I didn't start building models thinking who may want them when I'm gone.For me finding a plan of a boat to build gave me great satisfaction when finished.My boats may not survive.I'm sure parts and items will and someone else will get the joy of them.

    I'm not sure many of us have a plan for the disposition of our boats.When I had to move I sold some of my work for little money. Broke up some and kept parts off of them. Most of my builds are scratch builds and other then parts worth very little to others.
    The club I belong to gets donations from families and members to help with the disposal of thier loved ones work.
    We sell what we can at a club auction donating the money made to a Boys and Girls club in our area.
