Thank you @goldenoakfarm and @riverflows for sharing the sense of loss, the impact of burying a loved one. Sorry to have gone on about *me me me me .... grateful that you told us how hard it is to go on. Why do I forget that? "Keep on keeping on," my mom says. "We can't dwell on these things."

But even she slowed down a lot after all those tombstones went up....
