[WSBAPT] Unique Invebtory Item

[Timothy L. Austin]

Listmates,

 

I represent an estate that happens to have amongst its assets, a human
skull.

 

It was apparently acquired by an ancestor of the decedent while hiking in
the Southwest in the 1940’s, and  has been a member of the family ever
since. However, none of the beneficiaries of the estate are interested in
taking responsibility for the care and custody of the skull.  

 

Simply dumping it in the trash would seem to invite more problems than it
would solve.

 

My question:  How does one properly dispose of an item such as this?

 

Regards,

 

Tim
