Good evening guys,

Uncle passed last fall. Aunt wants these boards gone, she has no use for them.
This is a bit out of my wheel house but am trying to help them get it moved and would appreciate some help identifying this wood if possible. I am sorry I don't have much to go by.

Thank you.

Aunt was digging through pictures on his phone last night. This is the last tree he milled up. Not much for bark but maybe someone with a better eye than me can tell by the grain?

Thank you for the help guys. So much appreciated. Now to find a use for it, or possibly a new home.
Hopefully milling that spalted wood didn't contribute to his demise... I'm in a big woodworking club and maybe 15-20 years some of they guys became very ill from breathing in the fungus and dust while turning and flat boarding... The awareness level about this problem, exotics, and things like eastern red cedar, went way up after that and I haven't heard of any recent issues. Forced air respirators, exhaust fans, high efficiency dust collectors and other measures were adopted to avoid problems...
