"The Aftermath" by Libby Hoefler has slapped me awake into the reality of the world. People die. It could happen over time or happen abruptly. This vivid description of how much pain, grief, and sorrow that Libby is in has left an impact on me. And after reading, I had to agree with what she said: "A common misconception is that grief has an expiration date." It does not.

Libby, I know I can not say how sorry I am for your loss, but having read a memorable quote somewhere I now know not, I would like to share it with you. "Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, loves leaves a memory no one can steal."
