Many times I read posts here and sigh. Those of us who are older know the feelings of loss as we have experienced saying goodbye to our grandparents, parents and friends. We have heard the words, "Sorry for your loss." and know they don't change anyth

All we know is that it is good to know that other people care about us. We, on DU, do care about each other. I wish you all, well.
