:yeahthat: ... following the death, earlier this afternoon, of the last surviving member of the oldest generation of my immediate family. I am referring to my mother's sister, my Aunt Jean, who - had she lived for a few more weeks - would've turned 98!

Thankfully, she slept away peacefully.

RIP.

Indeed it's a grand old age, Steve ... even nowadays. Yes, lots of lovely memories too that cannot be erased. Thanks for your kind condolences ... they're very much appreciated. :xxgrinning--00xx3:

Condolences from me too Arthur.

As we get older we say goodbye to more and more friends and relations. They live on only in our memories.

Sadly, :olddude: you're right, but ... :anerikke: ... at least we're left with those memories - and photos.

Agree with that, I think back on family and friends that have gone often.

I do not dwell on my eventual passing and have as much as possible in order, and my funeral paid for.

My condolences Arthur.

Oh I know ... it's an inescapable fact - one affecting us ALL sooner or later - unfortunately. :bigcry:


Hope I can reach 100 at least :smile:

You 'n' me BOTH, Mick ... so do I. :smile:

Sensible philosophy. :xxgrinning--00xx3: I have certainly thought about taking out some sort
of prepaid funeral plan ... but not got around to it yet. :icon_rolleyes:


My condolences Arthur.

Thank you.
