Life takes on a sombre tone as we hear our neighbour has died. I wrote about Geoff last year when he ended up having daily heart attacks, then 5 stents put into his heart. Now he's had yet another heart attack. By the time they got him out to the ambulance he was dead. He was just 56, too young to die. His stepson has rapidly come home to stay with his mother - he's away in the armed services most of the time. It looks as though we have another funeral to go to soon.
It also makes you realise how lucky you are to be alive, in relatively good health, & together. All the more so when you realise Geoff was 56, midway between our ages. Our worries over the kitchen seem trivial compared to what his family must be feeling now.
