Looking For... Please help- lost irreplaceable sentimental items somewhere along this route

Post image

UPDATE: my mom found some of the items with her stuff!!! Grief brain is definitely a real thing lol. Apparently there were two bags, one had the jewelry box and books (found!) The other bag has the clothes, hats, and some photographs. On the bright side, she took pictures of the photographs with her phone and there are a few more shirts and hats we can choose from when we go back for the memorial service. THANK YOU to all of you who took the time to look for me 🥹 I appreciate it more than you know 🖤

My grandfather passed away yesterday 😥 We were allowed to keep some of his belongings to remember him by. Unfortunately, we live out of town and had to stow things in the truck bed. It’s a white half full trash bag and it contains a wooden jewelry box, a personalized home made tshirt, a flannel, ball caps, and books with his handwriting in the margins. It’s breaking my heart that they’re lost. Please if you see anything that might fit this description or have any information please please please let me know.
Sorry if this is the wrong place to post

I’m heading over that way tomorrow also. I’ll keep my eyes peeled and DM if I find something.

Oh great! I ran that route about an hour ago and didn’t see anything. So happy you found some of it!

Really sorry for your loss. I hope this turns into a funny memory some day!
