Although sh thought she was dirt poor so when everything was counted up, my Brother, Sister and I were shocked by what she had. All of us were buying her things and getting food, ect because we thought she was living on SS only. Lol. I wonder if many families have this situation. Sometimes elderly get that fear of not having money because they forget or really believe they don't have any money.
