Another One Gone

We are burying Uncle Tom this morning. He died Tuesday, after living with MS for close to 25 years. The parents' generation is quickly dissolving - two uncles and one aunt left. Then it's my generation's turn. That scares me beyond reasoning.

I've been thinking of Mom and Dad all week - next Thursday will be the 14th anniversary of Mom's death and Dad's 5th is coming up in May. Aunt Bobbie was right those many years ago when she told me in the limo on the way to the church for Mom's funeral Mass that you miss your parents every day of your life. I truly do.
