My lawyers said they could help me figure out how to get his items to him somehow but I don't know how yet. If the skillet wasn't so heavy, I'd be more inclined to just add it to his box, but it's a cast iron skillet.

I don’t think there is any moral obligation concerning the skillet but is there legal obligation? Maybe check with the lawyer just to make sure. If the lawyers say there is no legal obligation then maybe just donate it if that’s easier than getting it to him.
