another close relative passed away yesterday. he was 115 years old when he died. he is my grandmother’s younger brother – so a grand father. on sunday, a cousin died of kidney failure and survived by 6 kids. one of which is 8–9 years old. as of previous? obituary note,? I have? also not visited any of them for many? years. I feel so sad and guilty for not visiting the persons whom I know well. or whom deserve a visit from me. with these? 2 departure, I? now have no one I can call grandfather – although I still have 2 grandmothers;? one is? my father’s aunt, and the other is mom’s aunt. and I also have lost yet another close cousin. with all these branches of family tree falling off, I am not sure how can my big family connect or know each other. as modern life is keeping extended family apart, we truly will be in danger of losing connections. try an online family network? well, given majority of the ‘branches’ are of the old age, it would be hard to connect. I guess, the only way to get in touch with all those precious branches, sub – branches and leaves of the tree is by? reaching out to? them regularly. a phone call, a visit, a regards send through someone else, whatever. and this is what I intend to do in the coming months, weeks, days. I hope I can do that.
