[quote=Anonymous]I recently had a relative die. We held a vigil around his bed (he died in his bed in his house). We laughed, ate and mostly told stories. It provided the closure I needed and wanted. I had a lot of cousins and even a sibling who couldn't do this. They didn't want to see this man frail or sick, but I wanted to be there until the end. We all wrote our favorite story of him and collected them into a small book. My grandpa died when I was 12 and no one really asked me about it. I remember no one shared the good stories with me or asked me to say goodbye and I wanted to. [/quote]
