Fran - sorry to hear about the early departure of your friends. Life is way too short for all of us! Reminds me of a poem I was given during a difficult time in my military career...it stated:
"We squander our health in search of wealth
we struggle and toil and we save...
Then we squander our wealth in search of health
and all we get is a grave..."
Sad but true! Getting older is not for the faint of heart that is for sure. Again, sorry for your loss.
