And then there was one...

Marie Coyle @MarieCoyle (60891) 23 Jun

I think the worst thing about getting older is we lose some of the people we care about to time and age and the natural course of life. Nothing is permanent, I get that, but it's still hard to lose them. I had two aunts...

Maryann F I’m sorry for your loss. Parting is never easy, even more so the loss of an elderly family member or loved one. I always cherished the times my far-away relatives got to visit us, and we had a family reunion or picnic. But when their time to leave is near, I...

Jim Bauer @porwest (113649) • United States 23 Jun
