It does seem to be a woman’s thing this heirloom heritage saving? Oh occasionally us men will treasure the old pocket knife or perhaps a firearm, maybe even some tools, but it is the women who treasure the beloved knicks knacks and bric-a-brac; lace, glass, ceramics, silver and such. I know my wife and another dear old friend do so. They are keepers of stories and dreams in that way, of memories that we all treasure.
