Scully-
I'm the guy who sends mackerels in the mail when necessary to turned-seedy business partners and former friends. I can send stinkweed or anything you like to as many people as you wish. I enjoy the special wrappings.

Hey Scully, haven't they tried to pull this crap with you before? You're probably too good to them. They don't seem to appreciate your "taking the high road."
In my book, family is family - either all of the time or none of the time. I don't allow any middle ground.

Necessary business in WTS parlance means MONEY = "who gets what".
DON'T EVEN SEND A REPLY.
If they then continue trying to contact you, report them to their local elders and get THEM disfellowsipped for persisting in trying to have a relationship with an apostate family member.

((( Scully ))) I've been ignored by my "siblings", especially my brother and his wife, all of my life, even when I was in good standing. So why should they treat me any different now? At least they don't ask for money. OK by me.
I like the Red Cross donation idea. Telling them that you know the money would be put to appropriate use there. And don't bother asking ever again. They wouldn't understand Quotes at all. Not capable.
Stinkweed. Hmm. It's a little late in the year here, but the blackberry vines are still very nice!

Yep, they've been pulling this crap for years. I decided I'd had enough though when a non-JW brother got married .... we were invited so as not to Stumble™ the Worldly™ relatives, but we weren't good enough to be invited to (or even informed about) the other wedding related festivities, since it would require the JW relatives to have a meal at the same table as us. They got around that technicality at the wedding reception by seating us at a table away from the JW relatives.
