Do you have anything from one of your relatives (something that they passed down to you) and they're now gone?

A piece of jewelry, a painting/picture, or, maybe a book?

Nevermind the bite mark on my finger here (that’s from a parrot – long story), but, these are my Mom’s wedding rings. She gave them to me when she was dying in the hospital. She was so sick and thin from cancer, they were falling off of her finger. She took them off, looked at me and said, “tradition is important. Your sister has your grandmother’s wedding ring, your older brother has your grandfather’s and your younger brother will get your Dad’s. I want you to have these. Are they too old-fashioned?” Me, “No, Mom, they’re beautiful”. I put them on three years ago and have only taken them off to clean them.
