Hello All,
On February 6th my husband Travis passed away after a 28 month battle with brain cancer. He was a member of this community and a frequenter of this forum for more than a decade, with his involvement dwindling as the cancer took away some of his communication abilities in the past two years. I don’t know what his username was but I am certain many of you interacted with him over the years.
Among his belongings is an insane amount of GI Joes. Well, his collection may not be insane to some of you but I’m absolutely floored at how vast it is. I have at least 10 large totes with a mix of originally packaged, loose figures, and vehicles. Travis had a lot of time to prepare for his death and think about what he wanted to do with his legacy, and he asked me to sell his Joes as a way to help build his legacy fund which will be used to do good in his honor now that he’s gone (visit TrailsforTravis.org to learn more about our very early planning process for this). So now it’s up to me to figure out how to get the most without turning this into my life (as much as I want to love it, this was not a passion we shared... though I found his love of such a fun hobby endearing).
Thank you for any suggestions or advice you have in regards to how best to approach this task in a way that will bring the most good to others.
