        ??? Many people are not here anymore.
              Where are they now?
              Only God knows where all these people are now!

Too many.  Both parents, inlaws, friends, work friends.   And let's not forget our furry four legged friends.

Well, frankly, I am 68 years old so there are now many people I have known in one manner or another who have died.  Within the last year my brother-in-law, sister, and about 3 people out of my graduating high school class have died.  Less than 3 years ago, my oldest daughter's boyfriend died of cancer at only 45 years of age.  Losing people around you that you care for or are a similar age is usually tragic, eyeopening, and a bit frightening.

I am 70 years old and when you reach that age, you usually have been to quite a few funerals. I have been to surprisingly few, however, because most of my friends are still in pretty good shape. Of course, I have lost my mom and dad, and I lost my sister to cancer when she was only 40 years old, but my brothers are still kicking and showing no signs of slowing up and neither am I. People are just living longer and longer with advances in medicine.

I'm not old but have been to quite a number of funerals, lots of very old relatives and family friends. Between car accidents, the war, and suicide I have also lost a few people from my high school class. Always sad to hear.

I grew up going to church and this has been most of my life so there has been many that I know that have died, too hard to count.

At 79 years old, it would be easier for me to count how many people I know that are still alive.

Alot!  Several classmates killed in Vietnam, parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, friends.  Sad but an eventuality
