My last grandparent just passed away — my grandmother. She was 97.

My grandparents have been a huge influence in my life. I wouldn’t be where I am now without them.

I like to think that they benefited as much as I did.

They do seem to be a lot more tolerant. Maybe because, at their age, they have figured out what is important and what is not.

I like Bill Cosby’s comedy routine (Himself). Explains it all.

Sorry for your loss. It’s never timely, no matter the age. I remember reading an obit years ago, someone was described as passing away “unexpectedly” at 101.
