Neighbour

It is a sad day in my neighbourhood - my neighbour has died quite suddenly.

He and his wife and his daughter and his son moved in after I did.

The son moved out.

The wife died of cancer 2 ½ years ago.

The daughter stayed and was there for her dad. She is a nurse.

The dad had recently retired but was having health problems.

It is all quite sad.

Now the daughter is alone with the 3 cats in the house. Right now there is lots of friends and family around. Later on I expect it will hit her what has happened. In just over 3 years both her parents have died.

I am sorry to hear about your neighbour and I feel bad for the daughter. I am sure any support you can provide will be appreciated and welcome. And, you are right - it will hit her later after the visits from friends and family slow down.
