My Nonno died early this morning ๐ŸŒ…

The priest is making contact with the Cathedral over the funeral. The doctor has written the statement for the authorities, and the process of disposal has begun, tragically.

It makes you so aware of the frailty of our bodies, and reminds us that it is our souls that we need to safeguard. The tradition is three score and ten, but all the advances in medicine and the preservatives in the food chain are giving us more years.

Governments change their financial habits and priorities and many people alive now will never draw their pensions. Natural calamities rob many of any semblance of a future, and then their are the despots like Putin and Trump who care very little about the lives we have. The Churches confuse us and other religious people seek to find a political solution to their problems and wage wars through proxies on simple people trying to make sense of life.

My grandfather was a wonderful man who treasured every member of his family, and gave all he could to guide each one of us, showing us no preference of sons over daughters. I am better educated because of his efforts and dedications to my wellbeing. A man with over ten grandchildren who treated each one with equal devotion, keeping them thinking of church and land before any other thing.
