Do not keep these items that belonged to a deceased person.

consider creating three categories:

Keep:
Items that have genuine sentimental or practical value.

Review later:
Items you are unsure about and may want to reconsider when emotions are less intense.

Dispose or donate:
Items that are unsafe, expired, unnecessary, or no longer useful.

This approach can make an overwhelming process feel much more manageable.

You can also photograph sentimental belongings before giving them away. A photograph may allow you to preserve the memory without having to store dozens of  physical objects.
