RIP. I lost my father and brother within 4 months of each other at the end of last year. Its awful. Surround yourself with as many loved ones as you can.

It's a hard thing to see. My uncle passed last year, he was really sick. Kidneys shut down and was on dialysis. His last wish was that he would have one last Christmas with his family who were all over the country. Which he got. The day his son flew back to Ottawa, he was put in Paliative care. We figured at the time he had maybe a month left to live. But sadly, that wasn't the case. He passed that night at 1 in the morning. He knew his time was up. Luckily he managed to get most of his pre-death things done. But dealing with banks after a death is just ridiculous. It's like the people you talk to can't understand that the person they are looking to speak with has passed, even after you tell them 3 times.

My great aunt died last year, and within a day her sister died. We figure it was broken heart syndrome. They were fairly old, one was 97 the other I think 93. But we always remember that one of them was never allowed to go shopping with anyone. Not because she wasn't a nice person, but because she was someone who was impatient and would purposely skip lines and argue with cashiers when she was told to get to the back of the line.
