Sudden death sucks even more. At leas...Death sucks. Sudden death sucks even more. At least when a loved one has a terminal illness, there is usually time to come and say good-bye, or apologize for some hot tempered words. But when they literally just drop dead, it just leaves a large, empty hole. <br /><br />That happened with my second mother-in-law. One month after we were married, she and my father-in-law went for a dinner cruise. She collapsed 20 minutes into the cruise. They turned the boat around, had a doctor and ambulance waiting on the dock, and CPR was started immediately (Dad was a retired professional firefighter) and there was a group of handicapped adults on board with a couple of nurses, both of whom helped. But to no avail. She was only 57. The only blessing was that we realized through the next week that she had either seen, or spoken to each one of her 7 kids (all grown up and living scattered across the east coast) the previous weekend. <br /><br />My sincere condolences to your wife, and to her friend's family on their loss. May the many years of happy memories help them to cope over the next few days and weeks.

We arrived last year in time for the Class of 1966's 50th reunion. It was the first one I've attended since we graduated, and for the most part, the first time I've seen 95% of my graduating class (136) in that time. We had lost about 25 or so classmates in those years. We've lost 5 in this past year. One within a week of the reunion and one just this past week. I know just because, the pace of those friends leaving us will increase. Damn, getting older sucks as well. but as you've shown it is something we, the living, have to go thru. MiLady's and my sincere condolences to your wife and the family of the departed.SoCal Pir8https://www.blogger.com/profile/15601598407298523580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684531976778247960.post-58879906697765526462017-12-02T06:04:21.785-08:002017-12-02T06:04:21.785-08:00So sorry to hear that.
