I was going to write a post about how much of my childhood I lost this past year. It seemed that every other day a new name was being memorialized on my television, on my Facebook, on my heart.
Our family lost my mother-in-law and a close family friend. My friend lost her father. Another friend lost his grandmother.
We will always continue to find inspiration somewhere, but that doesn’t make any of these losses, family or celebrity, any easier.
Death is a part of life, and with the turning of the calendar page, 2016 passes away, and 2017 is born.
We Lost a lot of Progressive Artists
Generation X Lost too many Touchstones
We Lost Carrie Fisher and so Many OthersRemembering Those We’ve Lost
Timeline of Celebrity Deaths – 2016
