Marjorie Curtis’s son took her cedar chest for his daughter: “I think that was the most surprising part of the move. Things that I never would have thought my children wanted were what they wanted.” Another son “wanted my sewing machine—which was a shock. I planned to either give it or sell it, or whatever. And he said ‘No, I want that.’ And it was an antique; we bought it in 1946.” Later in the interview, she was asked about any collections, and she said that she had had a collection of spoons:
Because, well, we travelled considerably. So I did, I had two of those spoon cases. My oldest granddaughter asked for those. [Interviewer: Oh nice.] Yes, I was very pleased. And very surprised. I didn’t think that she was interested, but she said, “Oh no, I want those!”
