I know that this is exactly what my three brothers and I would do. I know that all it would take is a phone call and they would be by my side. When my Dad died we were left with three 3 investments. All were split 4 ways. I bought a serger, had laser eye surgery and now I just bought my new Brother NX2000. Every time I see something beautiful, I think of my Dad, everytime I sew I think of my Dad. My brothers are the best.
