You were a good son no doubt. My dad died March 14th. I regret not seeing him that last weekend of his life. I saw him the weekend before. My six year old son went to visit "Grampy" in more hospital and nursing home stays that I count on many fingers. I am so glad I brought him. Although he was bored and scared of Grampy's missing limbs due to diabetes, he was so sweet and kind the wee morning hours I brought him to see his Grampy for the last time. A gathering of the Clan made me proud. Now, just 18 days after, coupled with a innocent sweet woman's life ended in Florida and an amazing leader of my Catholic faith about to die, I treasure all that is simple and sweet in life.

Agreed.

We all die.

Nobody escapes death or dealing with it in a family.

JP2 was a great person. The next Pope has big shoes to fill.
