If I lived closer, I would help you brother Boo!
I care gave a close friend the last six months of his life and took care of his properties for him, including bathroom plumbing upgrades, heat pump, and building a wheelchair ramp for his invalid wife.
After they both died, I sorted, labeled, priced, and listed the various items in his estate for his attorney. Besides a ~$5K metal lathe that he willed me, I did all of that pro-bono, but my real payoff is that it made me feel good to do so.
Being in a position to donate my time and efforts to worthy endeavors has actually been one of the joys of retirement. Harder to do when you are also working to keep the wolf from the door.
