    Sometimes it seems like everyone went at once.

    Yep!!!! Seems like when I go to the greeting card store I always buy more sympathy cards than bithday cards,,a sad fact of life,,us pluggers usually have more friends in the grave yard than any place else.

    They did go all at once – Grandpa in his blissful sleep and the others screaming as the car fell into the canyon.

    One of the saddest things is to walk through the cemetary and see all the tombstones where the birth and death years are the same, or very close together. Is your teenager ticking you off? Give thanks he or she IS a teenager.

    Grandparents gone 40 years? Consider yourself fortunate. Neither of my grandfathers saw my birth, nor three of my four siblings; and only one saw that. My one grandmother’s been gone about 50 years, the other close to 40, and my parents more than 30. And for the record, I’m on the far side of 50 myself.

    Yeah, I walk through the local cemetery and see the parents of my friends and their birth dates.

    My dad, who’s been gone 10 years now, lost both his parents by the time he was about 12 so neither one of them saw any grandchildren produced by him or his 4 older sisters (who were just teenagers themselves at the time). I got a little luckier with my mother’s parents though: I lost my grandfather in 1988 when I was 19 and my grandmother died in 1999 when I was 30.
