Yes, it is sad, My Friend's funeral is today a little later. It's sad as he was full of life and deteriorated over a year I suppose. The last time I saw him was about a year ago I suppose. I spoke to him but then his hearing and his sight went downhill and he was able to go for respite care in a local home but contracted Pneumonia and passed away.
It's a shame as he was full of life and laughter. He made us all laugh and he really was a lovely person. It was the unexpected demise which is so upsetting. One minute we were all laughs and fun, then he wasn't particularly well and was beginning to forget things and the next thing was he was in the hospital for a long time and we didn't know then I managed a couple of calls but he wasn't his happy self he was stuck in the downstairs room with a specialised bed, losing his sight and hearing and there you go.
We will remember his happy and smiling self today. Then it is my Aunt's funeral on Monday and whilst she lived to a ripe old age, dementia carried her off some years ago. She was reasonably OK when I attended her husband's funeral in 2020 under the horrendous Government's stupid rules. What utter bollocks that was and their draconian hard-nosed absurd rules did nothing for something that when looked back on proves the hubris of man thinking they can control a virus - the pratts.
Anyway, mustn't digress from the message that it is the funeral today and next Monday and we will pay our respects and feel happy to have known them and sad that hey are no longer here. Let us hope that they find peace on their next journey.
