I had a large number of great-aunts in my life and none of them left me anything in their wills. I do still have gifts the two closest to me gave me while they were alive--some jewelry and other small family keepsakes from one, and a handmade rug and blanket from another.
I'm glad to have those and to have known them, but I didn't expect any money from any of them.
(Okay admittedly in one case that's because of a Dickensian family situation involving kidnapping and lawsuits and if there HAD been any money left after the whole thing was resolved my mother, not me, would probably would have gotten a large share of it, but there wasn't.)
