I have several items around the house that once belonged to my deceased family members - but the item that gets the most comments belongs to my husband. We have a really large windmill in the yard that belonged to his grandfather. We move a lot due to my DH's job and the windmill goes with us. It started in Iowa, moved to Illinois (4 different houses there) then traveled all the way to California and then back across country to Georgia. I have to laugh every time I see the expression on the movers face's when they realize they must make room for a windmill on the truck!
