My "aunt" passed away exactly 48 hrs after my Aunt passed away. My mom and dad's best friends all through their marriage were our "Aunt and Uncle", closer than some of my actual aunts and uncles that were family. She passed away at the age of 92. Funeral Tuesday, same day as DS;'s graduation. It will be a chaotic day.
Yesterday a cousin of my mom and aunt passed away at the age of 92, also.
3 deaths in 4 days…
This is a busy week with ds1's graduation, I have to vacate my Aunt's apartment….. and we go away Sunday… except for the fact that the hotel lost our reservation.
This has never happened in the 28 years we have been going there. They changed ownership in December, and in March I made the reservation. Just to be safe ( and b/c I have been reading reviews online that say how it is not good anymore, how it has gone downhill since they opened in April) , I called just to confirm… and no reservation! Heartsick! They called today to say it had been "found", but on the reservation email, the prices were $30 more than I reserved for back in March. Time to make memories elsewhere! The kids are sad… I am too… this is "our" place… But I want to remember it the way it was…. I hate to go, have a lousy time, and be sick over what once was...
I now have reservations at a cute inn! ( and for the first time, we got the kids their own room, as he only had a few rooms left that had only 1 Queen bed. So queen and rollaway for the kids room, and DH and I get our own room!

Praying for you and your family as you go through all of that.
