Unhappy

My very practical and hands on dad who taught me so much.

Collapsed and died at home on mine and OH's wedding anniversary.

Now an equally happy and sad date.

Lost my sister back in 82, still to this day I haven't really come to terms with it.
Lost many other family members and a few friends over the years too, it certainly doesn't get any easier.
We as a family like to celebrate Christmas 'for' them while we're still on this earth rather than spending the day reliving the sorrow of their loss.
I guess we'll see them again soon enough.

Most recent was my grandma, a year and 2 days ago, my auntie aged 51, 5 years ago and the main one I still struggle with was my dad who, come the end of January will have been gone 20 years. He was just 49, the same age I am now. As with all of us there have been many more close family and friends but for many reasons some affect us more than others.
My thoughts are with everyone posting here.

Steve.

Nice thing to say, it's at times like these when our lives have been affected by tragedy our hearts go out to others.

Both my parents and my best friend, my Sister who was 8 years younger than me and died in 2011.

She loved Christmas.
