As we get older...we lose more...

As we are getting older, and this is just

as true of those of our parents and grandparents,

we lose people...

Our headlines read of the passing of the likes of

Patty Duke... and others.. that we spent our

childhood or young adult life with..

It is like a piece of us dies with them.. A piece of

our childhood.  Singers we sang in our cars with

or saw on American Bandstand.  And some times

those people's deaths come in 3. And it seems

like our childhood times are cracking apart.

But life marches on until the next piece falls off.
