Maybe this will help a bit: "my grandparents are dead" ... "that's nice"
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Well, in her defense, when my grandparents moved into a retirement home, they couldn't bring along a full house worth of furniture with them, so my parents/uncles/aunts "inherited" it even though they were still alive and well...

My Answer - "Yeah, we're relocating to our disaster shelter, and the only thing left to move is the guns and ammo. If you want this house, it's yours, and here's a map to the property - don't dig where you see a red 'X'."
Before closing the door, whisper, "Don't trust ANYONE."

- You can never have too much ammo - unless you're swimming, or on fire. - JSOP, 2010
- When you pry the gun from my cold dead hands, be careful - the barrel will be very hot. - JSOP, 2013

Yeah but for stuff like furniture I wouldn't use the word "inherit".
Nothing prevents you from just giving things like that away. With "inherit" I'd associate some legal process involved. (Like transferring the ownership of a house or a company)

Wiktionary does not agree. Also, I'd expect the greeting "have a great day" after such a conversation.

Oxford Dictionary word: inherit
** Section 1.2 Receive or be left with (a situation, object, etc.) from a predecessor or former owner.
** North American Section 1.3 Come into possession of (belongings) from someone else
I do not acknowledge your citation with Wiktionary whatever, blah, blah, blah...
inherit: definition of inherit in Oxford dictionary (American English) (US)[^]
Basically the word can be used with or without the context of someone's passing or death.
