Current Events > How old is the youngest person whose funeral you've attended?

(+) Yeah! (+)

This will probably be a depressing topic.

I've been to a funeral for a 5 year old who died from leukemia. Closest after that was a 23 year old who commit suicide. Both were pretty heart-wrenching.

5 months? Holy shit, that would be heart-wrenching.

Mine is pretty young to die but not bad compared to some in this topic, but had an uncle die at 36 when I was about 10 years old or so. I'm not entirely sure what the cause was. He had cardiac arrest but also suffered a seizure at the time of death, so perhaps one caused the other?

Never been to a funeral I don't ever get invited.

Not that I would really want to go in the first place.

That's rough. How old were you at the time when your brother died?
---

my cousin died in a car wreck when he was a teenager, maybe like 16-17?

---

Less than a year old baby cousin from a car accident. Next closest would be 26 year old from cancer.

I was almost 4. He was a twin with my little sister surviving. My father died in 2010 at 55 years old because of a shitty student doctor, and then my big sister(my best friend) died in 2017 at 35 years old. I turn 36 on the 20th, in 3 weeks.
