I have very few tools that my dad owned. That's because he didn't own many. By age 14 I had more tools than he ever did by a margin. The stuff I do have doesn't seem to hold any sentimental value because my dad never worked with me on bicycles, karts or cars. He didn't care.
My mother studied 'art' at USC and I have s a few of her "tools." Namely some leather working tools and some inking drafting tools which are very high quality. I don't ink, of course, but before CAD I drew all my plans using her tools that held lead. My mother was never an artist but she could arrange flowers like a pro and sew her own nice clothes. Don't know where she found the time.
