It's been kinda sad for my mother here recently. I think I've told you she is 83 years young. She was use to a group of ladies getting together playing cards and visiting with each other. Now there is only her and one other lady who is 89 and pretty much blind.

Another of their friends passed from a massive heart attack and they are taking it pretty hard. This friend who passed was also the mother of a dear bus driving friend of mine. The visitation was last night and of course I went for my friend, but also to make sure my Mom and her friend were going to be okay.

They did fine through the tears. I think this is the worse thing about growing older....losing family and friends.
