The article said that she got rid of most of it before she moved to an apartment; the remainder probably went to her family.

"Over the next few decades, the mother of seven saw the Purple One 25 times, in far-flung locales such as New York, Detroit, Chicago, Canada, and his home base of Minneapolis. In her sprawling house in Cleveland, Boyer even had a dedicated Prince room -- with walls painted purple, of course -- crammed full of memorabilia related to the icon. Photos, magazines, vinyl, posters, CDs, pins, laminates, promo swag -- you name it, chances are Boyer had it. At the peak of her collecting, she had 300 different posters, 100 different T-shirts, and more than 1,200 unique albums in every format."

WOW!!!

It's so sweet that she got to be onstage with him and got herself a hug.

Prince, in you I found a kindred spirit...Rest In Paradise.

Someone seriously posted this in the comments on that article:

"So sorry to hear of her passing also WHEN IS HER ESTATE SALE?"

Wow, so sad, I wondered how old she was now

I went with Dennis and some friends to visit her back in '91. She was really sweet and had a great collection. Dennis always helped her find things and traded items with her.
