I've been losing people this week... - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Not just people I know from TV (Robin Williams, Joan Rivers, and Don Pardo)...but people I've known in my family and church.

Last Tuesday, I lost my uncle's mother in-law she was 90-some years old, then last Monday I lost a church member from leukemia...he was in his 50's or early 60's and has two sons who are teenagers/young adults, and I may lose another one soon in a month or two.

And yet...my grandma of 95 years old outlived most of the ones she was with...I always joke that she'd survive the nuclear holocaust and/or the rapture (I know that was sadistic, but it sucks to know that someone close has died)!

I'm sorry for all the loss you have been experiencing recently. Glad to hear your Grandma's doing well though!

I'm so sorry Paul. I know how you feel. I've been going through old photo albums this week. I've been fixing them into newer albums and organizing them better for my Dad. It's hard looking at a bunch of them from the 60's and 70's because he and I are the only ones left in a bunch of photo's. Very depressing.
