    Alex you are a man to be admired and saluted! The way you think of other people when cleaning out these houses goes above and beyond what any other person would do. Most people having outlaid the sort of cash you did would be trying hard to get their principal back with a decent profit. But not you!! You are looking out for refugees, family and friends. That’s something very special Alex! In all the time l have watched yourself and family it never ceases to surprise me what a great human being you are. The perfect role model for the next generation. Alex l stand and salute you. You deserve as many accolades as you can get. Well done. Bravo. And on behalf of those who receive your generosity l say a big thankyou. You probably will never know just how special you are although l hope you get some inkling!!

We never know how help to another might be what propels them in an upward trajectory! The gentleman who owned this home had no idea how many people his collections were going to help. Bless him and all involved. ♥️🙏🏻♥️

    Love that you can confer with your kids on what items are, knowledge comes in a range of ages. If those snowboards are Rossignol, they should have decent value. Back in the day (80’s) Rossignol was considered a sought after brand. I believe they still are.
    I’m glad to see that many of contents of this home are being used to give back to others. Based on what’s there it appears this owner was fairly young, which is sad. Your purchasing the home is a good send off for him, feeding many of his belongs into the lives of others, is certainly a blessing. Alex, your family is exactly what this world needs, such warm hearts.

    The scanner is a Snap On newer economy division called Blue Point. The Red Snap on Scanner was way expensive scanner like around 2K or so Blue Point is there budget line. I purchase one Snap-On socket for my 94 F3507.3 diesel injector pump tool it cost almost $100.00 for one socket! But had to have it for the job it worked great and now just sits in my Craftsman tool chest drawer. They sure have good stuff like a collector of all sorts but really nice looking. So much still in boxes yet to explore.
