I'm very sorry for your loss, Bill
Welcome to the board.

Longarm University is a good place to list the sweet 16 with the table You can place an ad at this link: (scroll down just a bit)

I have a Bernina Virtuosa 160, and it has been a workhorse. However, I bent the presser bar when trying to sew through too many layers of denim. I was able to get it fixed, but I would not suggest using that particular machine for heavy duty sewing.

Also, It uses an older version of Bernina presser feet. The older versions are still easily available to buy online.
This link shows the difference between the old (#12 on the left in the picture) and the new (#12c on the right)
This comment is about Bernina only Other machines have different feet completely.

If there is a quilting guild or a senior center near you, they can help you sort through the things you don't want to keep and make sure everything gets a good home.

edit:
I found this quilt guild in San Antonio They may not be open yet, but maybe they can still help if you contact them:
