I would have thought that QEQM would have received some items from QM's upon her death.
Thanks for filling in a blank for me. It is nice getting these little snip-its. It makes me go back and re-read Roberts with purpose which I find more useful. I find that when I read it page by page I get caught-up in the plethora of information that it all starts to blur together.
Now having reviewed these 2 entries, they will hopefully stick with me (I also made some notes!)
Cheers! Bryce
