Thank you all for your thoughts and hugs. Though this is way too early for one of my older brothers (there's six of us, 3 boys and 3 girls) to be leaving us, he's had a good life up to this point. A very happy marriage and he has raised 4 beautiful daughters and helped put them all through college. Three of them are now married to three great guys and two of them have children, so he's also a grandfather of four. It just sucks that you work so hard all these years to support and see your family grow, and then you get close to your retirement years and you can't even sit back and enjoy your twilight time. He's only 58 years old.

As I get older, I seem to find myself more often crying on occasions of extreme joy? Weird or what?
