My sympathies to the family. I hope, though, that Donna will pass along
this advice to Connie. My own father died, quite suddenly, on my sister's
18th birthday. The following year, we were talking about plan for Susan's
birthday when Dad's mother (who could be difficult) said in a shocked tone,
"But that's the day Jim died!" as if the thought had not occurred to us
yet.
Susan looked straight at grandmother and said, "I had it first." And
everybody laughed, even grandmother. So Connie, this date was reserved
first for you, and I'm sure it was not your dad's plan to die on your day.
Think instead about how happy he must have been on the very first day that
you entered this world! To quote a poem I heard at a funeral, "weep if you
must, parting is hell. But life goes on, so sing as well!"
