My read on this is that monetary and material gifts can only go so far in healing a strained relationship. I would tend to agree with jessmarimba -- this is something she needs to work out for herself ... there may be things your husband can do to help repair the relationship, but it may be that his daughter needs to take the initiative, if she has so much resentment built up.
