“Who Gets Grandma’s Yellow Pie Plate” Subject of Greene County Extension Class on Sept. 26
University of Missouri Extension Human Development Specialist Dr. Jim Wirth will conduct a class on Wednesday, Sept. 26 on the topic of “Who Gets Grandma’s Yellow Pie Plate” as part Greene County Extension’s "live and learn" series of classes.
The class focuses on passing on non-titled property, especially the items that trigger special memories among family members.
“The battle comes from the fact that money can be divided evenly among heirs, but special items that have sentimental value can’t be cut in half,” said Wirth. “These are also the things most likely to divide families when it is time to distribute estate assets.”
The 50 minute class will run from noon to 1 p.m. and costs $10 per person. Attendees of any “live and learn” class can bring a lunch or purchase snacks in the Botanical Center bookstore and learn something new each week. Call (417) 881-8909 to reserve a seat for the program.
Classes will be held in one of the classrooms at the Greene County Extension, located inside the Springfield-Greene County Botanical Center, 2400 S. Scenic, Springfield.
The list of classes is available online at extension.missouri.edu/greene. Other classes planned for the “Live and Learn” series at the time of this release include:
• Sept. 26: “Who Gets Grandma's Yellow Pie Plate,” taught by Dr. Jim Wirth, human development specialist with MU Extension.
• Oct. 3: “Mind-Body Relationship and Health,” taught by Dr. Jim Wirth, human development specialist with MU Extension.
