She's 101 and lives in Ohio. She found out last night her friend died and her friend's husband is in the hospital. They had just gotten back from Florida and had to be hospitalized right away.

But the same day I found out my neighbor’s BIL died in Colorado from COVID-19. The two brothers had been on the outs for years. They were just starting to plan a big party and were inviting them as a way to break the ice. Now they’ll never get that chance 😢
