re: What have some of you done to help get over the pain of losing someone?

My paw paw practically raised me. Losing him broke my heart. It was somewhat easier because he was in his 90s and I could see that he was sliding for a few years.

I'm just thankful for all of the time that I had with him. He got to know most of his 12 great grandkids. Not many people have a grandparent alive into their late 30s.
