Antique Collection....my fathers estate

Postby tammysinnett » Wed Sep 23, 2009 11:25 am

YOu are all my horse family so I wanted to share this little bit of information. My father passed away and left a house full of treasures. We have decided to put everything into a local auction company to help pay for his medical and burial expenses. There is proxy bid and this auction company is small and gives that good ole country gentleman atmosphere. If you are into antique unusuals check out the web page...some very interesting articles...anything from an ole time mousetrap, pictures, lincoln tinplate, slave collar, lots of memoribilia from the wars and so many unusual toys etc. Have fun looking hope someone finds a piece they have been looking for....and treasure anything they may buy...my father treasured each piece and its very hard to see it go. The sale is next Tuesday and Wednesday you can proxibid or bid online with online auction....thankyou for your time Tammy

My father was a horse trainer in the 60's he made it all the way to the Kansas City Royale with a pony named BoJans Top Lady......whenenver he did things he did it till he was the best or had the best...he took this same attitude with his antiques.

So sorry to hear of your loss. I hope you and your family were able to retain a few particularly cherished mementos, but no one can ever rob you of the memories of your father. He sounds like a very special man -- God rest his soul.

hi tammysinnett

Sounds like your father left not only antiques and things to treasure...but also memories to treasure.

May he rest in peace...and your memories be wonderful.

Dear Tammy,

My sincere condolences with the loss of your father.
You may have to sell the things he loved, but no one can take the memories from you. They are priceless.
