I'm sorry for your loss, Griff. How is your dad handling it?

He sounded good on the phone. I think he's reassured that his brother appeared to go out easy. He will dedfinitely miss his daily 7:45 phone call. He's lost 2 sisters and 2 brothers and has 2 sisters and 2 brothers left. I think he's getting used to it, if that's a thing.

Sorry, Griff.

I'd like to go out that way myself.

He's at the age when news of peers checking out isn't surprising anymore, not pleasant but not surprising. It causes a lot of reflection of your own role in the grand scheme of things, especially after the funeral.
