Sad, sad news.
I think it's good when your parents hang around a while, it's great to be able to show them how much they mean. When they're taken young there seems so little time to enjoy.
My mum will be 91 in February god willing, the last of her or my dad's family still around. She smiles a lot too. But misses her brothers and sisters everyday.
Getting old ain't for cissies.
Upt'North.
