MJ – I’m so sorry. My dad died at 57, and my grief lasted months, mostly because it was so sudden and all the things were left unsaid. In one month it will be 20(!) years and there are still moments when I miss him and wish I could call him. But it does get easier and those moments are further apart.

@Golfer.gal – that sucks. I’m lucky in that two people left my organization leaving a vacuum in my area. They can’t afford to lose me right now. One of the more senior guys was like “You’re not going anywhere right?” and I was like “Nope, need a few more years to retirement, you are safe.”
