(...) Anything I own will be left to my kids and wife. What they do with it will be up to them.

(...) Simple. Procreate:-) Or will it to relatives with kids or who are young adults that will be having kids (assuming loose bricks) If you are talking MOCs, they could be saved as heirlooms, or sold off on eBay.
