I am sorry to hear of your uncle's death. Any family death is sad. It's disconcerting when you realise that the older generation is now you. |

It was the death of a cousin a few years ago that prompted all of the remaining cousins to have a get-together every year. We have caravans, tents and trailer tents, and we go to a different site each year and have a wonderful time. |

Sorry to hear that Rollo. It is sad that as we get older we lose our older generation. I too had a lot of aunts and Uncles and cousins older than me. Now I have one cousin left in his 90s, when he goes I will be the oldest on both sides of my family, still having younger cousins than me. |
