Yesterday, a thought came to mind that I hadn't heard from an old high school friend in a while. I think that the last time we talked was just after Covid. I Googled his name and learned that he had died a few months ago. This got me thinking; I also haven't heard from another old friend who I met through the internet. We used to exchange emails and jokes from time to time. I sent an email to him and never got a response. I started to search Google again, and even though I can't confirm it, I believe that he also has passed away.
I know how easy it is to get caught up in a busy life, but those friends that have moved away and you don't see any longer shouldn't be forgotten. Give them a call and get caught up, who knows how much living we have left? I go to too many funerals now, and some of the older folks don't have many people attend their funeral because either they outlived all their friends or their friends don't know that they have died. Give them a call before they die.
If you are active on a forum, leave instructions to let the forum members know of your passing. A life lived shouldn't be forgotten when you die.
