We feel our heart breaks in pain and sorrow when see someone, a friend of ours in Facebook passed away. I had many friends who were no longer on earth due to sicknesses and covid. The feeling truly sucks. Also, what we usually see featured in Facebook account this time, fatalities due to covid. Last week, I greeted someone in Facebook, she was a long ago Mylotter here Tina Krause, only to know from her sister that she passed away two days before her birthday last year. Frankly, I BLOCKED all those no longer with the living to avoid pains of remembering. I hope they forgive me. It does not mean that because I deleted or blocked them means forgetting them, it's No. What about you? Do you also block them or retain in your account? Thank you guys for reading. Keep safe all.

It is painful to see people we know to die and many are dying because of this horrible virus. No, I do not block the accounts of those who are no more.

@cacay1 This is the reason why we receive no one and we go nowhere. You cannot know who is infected, it is too dangerous to meet people.

I knew Tina (Krausehome). She was an active member here. It's sad that she is no more here on the site. Few days back only I checked her profile and found she is no more active here. I thought maybe because she uses to had pain in her legs so might not be on the sites these days. You gave me a shock. I am not much active on Facebook so don't know much about the people.

@cacay1 oh that's really saddening news for me. She was a good member of the site. There are many people here who have passed away but we don't get to know about them unless we are with them on the social sites. I was shocked to know about when some told that HWG who was an active member here too passed away.
