Really sorry to hear it John. It is hard accepting the losses that have come on the road to this age. That is the major price tag on a long life and perhaps the cruelest part of it. First grand parents, parents, aunts and uncles, then friends and siblings and spouses and people you dated and loved. I have lost so many friends, including many on this board. I also have friends who have outlived their children and I am only 61. (It is hard to reconcile saying "only" 61, but I "feel" and act different than I recall my parents feeling at this age). But no amount of preparation got me ready for these kind of losses. I hope he had a happy life and I hope there will be some way for you to mitigate and reconcile your pain. You are squarely in my thoughts my friend. You've become the clear and beloved elder statesman here and I appreciate you a great deal. Take care in this horrible time, Brian
