Yesterday, I taught an old lady how to use her DVD drive on her laptop. She told me this DVD was given to her from an old friend that passed away. I saw her eyes light up when she saw old home videos of a young gentleman fishing. Turns out it was her husband that recently passed. I had to go in the back to hold in my tears. That shit is so depressing and rewarding at the same time watching her smile.

My grandfather kept going to his high school reunions until he was the only one who showed up.

I did funeral "memory" videos for a while. Kinda felt like Robin Williams in The Final Cut.

It's better than going to the reunion & no one shows up

My grandma used to save obituaries from the paper. She called them her "scorecards" - because she outlived them.

There comes a point in your life where you have to buy a black suit/dress you only wear at funerals. Mine is ten years old now.

My parents read the obits everyday. My dad calls it checking the scores.

I helped an elderly couple delete dead contacts because the calendar would not stop showing their birthdays, which creeped them out.

I used to work the obit desk when I first started at the paper, had an old lady call looking for service information. Couldn't find any 1/2

Did having that position change your outlook on life any? Or 'just a job'?

I hated the obit desk. It fucked with me a lot. The worst was getting obits for people I knew.

2/2 she said it was her friend and she hadn't heard from her in a few days and thought she'd died.

My grandfather checks the newspaper from his home town every day to see if any of his old friends have past. It is super sad.

because I was nice to her daughter, and her daughter was fond of me. even though i never knew them.

Remember that these old folks have 2-3 times the happy memories that we do, and seeing their friends and family pass away is natural.

and no matter how much we try to remember, we will always forget.
Affray
I remember a sickening amount of details pertaining to the people in my life who have died. I wish I could forget things even a little.
ImmaculateDegenerate
That's why I'm creating a memory journal with pictures and mementos specifically meant to try and help me remember.

Dh's grandma is 82. She checks the obituaries and sees how many she has "won" by outliving. She is awesome.

Yes, but is she ready to mingle is the important question.
