@jakedduck1 It really is hard to lose the things we hold dear because they have sentimental value. I wish we had recorded more about our grandparents, 3 of whom passed away before I and my siblings were born. Now there is no one left from my mother’s generation.
I have some pieces of jewelry that were my mother’s, and a gold bracelet that was my aunt’s. On special occasions like my son’s wedding I wear that jewelry, it’s like I feel they are close to us then.
I agree with you about kids on Halloween. I hate when teenagers come around, no costumes, just wanting candy. My husband and I both feel that the kids have gotten nicer and more respectful than what we were seeing 10 or 15 years ago though.

I know what you mean. It
I’m sorry so many members of your family are gone. My Mom is the last of her side. All my Dads side is gone. My Dad was quite a it older than my Mom and died 27 years before I was born. A lot of my Dads tools were stolen and like you I feel close to my Dad when I use them. It will be very difficult and frightens me when she passes.

I had a funny incident happen on Halloween once. A couple kids all dressed up held out their hands and after I gave them some candy one said “I want more.” It was’t like they were only getting one piece. Then he says it again. And says “why can’t I have more?” “I want more!,” “I want more!” The he started to cry. What a spoiled miserable brat I thought and he reached in my bowl for a handful of candy. Then they both started laughing uncontrollably. It turned out to be my friends. They were on their knees. They got me good. I’m sure I paid them back but I don’t remember it now. My friends, sometimes I wonder???
