Have you dealt with a greedy fam member after a death?

I came across this pic I took for my Aunt through marriage to let her know she wasn’t getting my painting 😠



Soon as she heard someone said it was worth a serious amount of money, she lost it saying it was promised to her daughter 😒 Growing up I just loved this painting. It’s like a piece of my childhood and it was my Gram’s who promised it to me when I was that young. She promised my cousin the other one that she loved.

It’s just sickening that she was ready to take it only b/c she thought it was worth money. After I sent her my pic my cousin told her, “no it’s hers, Gram promised her that one.”

My cousin took hers off my Gram’s wall when she was still in her nursing home room. I only had mine many years before b/c she didn’t have a place to hang it given its size. My Gram announced at that Thanksgiving that a nice stranger asked her for her painting and she gave it to her. Dementia.. but we didn’t know it yet and were all losing it 🤣

Bruh im dealing that with land and businesses. It's wild that people who dont see on holidays nor even have the same last name as you trying to pretend they should get a piece of inheritance for merely saying hi to the relative that passed away. People annoy me when it comes to money

@empanadas Yesh, that’s pretty low. People can be so screwed up. I’m sorry you’re dealing with that.

@MellyMel22 to thicken the plot this person did everything they can to embarrass us in public. It's just astounds me how people change up when money is involved

@empanadas Thats really screwed up! So many do.

The funny thing is that it seemed to be a lie about the pic being worth money b/c my dad was working on his will. It was like she wanted him to think I was set up and didn’t need whatever it was he was leaving me so that he could give it to her son or the others. She hates me b/c I was raised closest to him.
