Too much too soon

[melaniesuzanne]

I'm heading to Memphis this afternoon so I can attend my great aunt's funeral in Arkansas tomorrow. It's okay... she was 94 and had been in poor health and bedridden for a couple of years. I'm so glad that I got to see her when Hubbyfink and I decided on the spur of the moment to visit my dad's cousins and aunt and uncle when we were in Arkansas a few years ago. I'm going home to see family who I haven't seen since childhood.

More devastating, though, was finding out last night that tirloch died yesterday afternoon. He was in good spirits at the SCA event he stewarded two and a half weeks ago and underwent surgery to repair a torn Achilles tendon two weeks ago. His family and a slew of friends descended upon carthew's house last night to support her and get her through the first evening. I'm so sorry that I won't be around to help this week but I know Hubbyfink and our friends will be there for her.

I'm so sorry. Looks like he wasn't even 60. Too young.
