Yes.
The Brambletts, the former Auburn radio announcer, both died in a tragic car wreck a little over a year ago, orphaning their 2 kids.

ETA: sorry for your loss.

I've seen this more times with elderly couples.
I work with one whose mom died in January, father died in May this year.

Can’t imagine. I’m so sorry. One foot in front of the other, things will slowly get back to normal.

No, but I lost my grandparents(mother's parents) within 6 weeks of each other. That was rough.

Not quite what I was asking.

The Brambletts died together. Tragic.

Parents and three siblings in 13 months.

I’m very sorry for your loss. Time does not make it better. It just gives space.

I have a lifetime of memories and see them all in my minds eye daily. Have some good laughs still.

Hope you do to.

My condolences on your losses.

I will say one for you and your family that you be given comfort and strength to get through this and one for the repose of the souls of your Dad and Mom.

God Bless.

I’m sorry for your loss. My last surviving grandparent, my wife’s dad, and my dad all died within a three-month timespan. It is a hard road but, over time, it will get easier.

I can't imagine.

I am sorry for your loss too.

I am the baby of the family, which probably explains my attitude on some people's posts.

I am taking this hard.

A friend of mine lost his, last year, within 3 months of each other. One had cancer and the other was a massive heart attack.

Sorry for your loss as well.

Hope the road gets easier for all of us who suffer this type of loss.

I hope I'm not cursing myself the last 17 days of 2020, but it sucks and I don't think it can get any worse.

Sorry to hear that. Hang in there. IIRC HoustonChick lost hers pretty close together too. Not sure why I remember that and I don't recall the length of time between their passing.
