(319,311 posts)74. Wow... What a Poignant and Endearing passing
of time, rasputin .
I'm so sorry about your friends.
Welcome back!
I started exactly one year after you did.. It has been a long amazing ride for our Democracy. Meeting Kindred Spirits along the way from all over our Country and the World.
I want to add another name from the Memoriam list who I miss so much every single day.
Her name on DU is Me.. she passed August 10, 2023. I never met her outside of here.. she lived in Manhattan and I'm on Kauai.. but we PM all the time and sent each other cards for birthdays and Christmas.
And, it feels really good to be able to write about her now.
To all our DU Friends who have Passed.
