Time passes and we get older and we don't notice until they are sick or gone. My dad died at 60 years old and he seemed much younger so it was a shock. He had cancer, and died within 2 months of being diagnosed. That was 1993, and I still don't believe it sometimes. It seems so unfair.
WOW! My dad as well, Jeri, only he was 68. He died on November 2, 1993. I knew at Christmas 1992 that it would be our last Christmas together. My my passed Memorial Day weekend 1996. Both of smoking related cancer. My mom passed just before her 71st birthday.sigpic

It is hard enough with my grandparents, on the other hand, my grandparents from my mom´s side are/where as close to me as my Mom and my siblings. Spent almost my whole life with them.
And as I saw with my grandma´s death, it had such an huge impact on family dynamics and the relationships between us as she passed away. Hard to describe how important she was, not only for family but also for relatives and friends, she had such an aura of warmth and kindness and everyone felt good and relaxed around her. She was not a person who tries to change you, rather change you with setting a good example. I miss her.sigpic
