The Death of My 80 Yr Old Friend

My friend died on Friday. He was 80 yrs old but I knew him for his last 12. I knew he was sick but I truly hoped that he would get better & live for many more years.

I've been in shock since I found out. Almost numb but I think I'm finally going through the mourning process. I've told my friends about my loss. They're all sympathetic and allowed me to vent but some have either not thought it important enough to ask or have told me not to worry that i'll be okay. To those few I say... Duh! Really? I'll be okay? I thought my life was over. Thanks for letting me know i'll be okay! Grrrr...

Sorry, I needed to let that out. I have to say that the majority of my friends have been awesome & just listened. I'm especially loving my friend Cristian who was just as upset as me. Our phone conversation was just what I needed. I wish I could have reached through the phone and hugged him.

Anyhow, I'm very sad my friend is gone. My life will definitely change with this loss but I have to look ahead and move on.

I will miss you First Fed.
