My condolences. I think about this stuff a lot these days. My Dad’s health is declining. Nothing major yet, but he’s been told by his doctor to start using a walker or cane because he falls a lot, and he’s losing is memory bit by bit. We don’t expect anything bad right away…but it makes you start to think. -D/a ---

Very, VERY unexpected. She was 63. Not in the greatest of health (diabetes) but certainly not at death’s door. Went to bed Thursday night and died in her sleep sometime early Friday. Very peaceful, the coroner said from what they could tell she didn’t even move in her sleep so whatever it was, was quick. May have been caused by a drug interaction. We don’t know yet. Thanks for all of the condolences, prayers, etc. _hugs_ ---
