Have you ever been hurt so much by a family member but still when they passed on, you were deeply affected and grieving?

I can't say I was unaffected by the deaths of my parents. I had no particular affection for my father, and honestly didn't particularly care all that much when he died. Likewise, I didn't care all that much for my mother, but I had to deal with her more because I was responsible for her care for the last decade or so of her life. In many ways, her death was a relief, as it was becoming more and more difficult managing her needs as she aged.

Even so, their deaths did affect me, and I sometimes consider how who I have become was influenced, even controlled, by who they were.
