re: The last time you truly wept

Listening to my dad eulogize his sister who died much too early from ovarian cancer a couple years ago. It was one of the best speeches I've ever heard. It was strange that I didn't cry for my grandparents' funerals the year before when they died from the Vid, but they were old and had lived a full life.

But my aunt was taken before her time, well before her time. She had such a spirit for life, and two young grandchildren that were under 8 years old. And I guess I was coming to the realization that when my dad was my age at that time, that he had less than 10 years left with his dad and that I could be the one up there speaking about my dad at truly any moment.
