It sounds obvious, but people take up space. When they’re gone, they leave a hole. Sometimes the hole is small and barely noticeable, and sometimes the hole is much larger.
My father-in-law was diagnosed with terminal cancer just before Christmas and passed away this afternoon aged 77.
So long, John. You leave a massive hole.

Sorry to hear this Bob. My wife’s father passed away just before Christmas a couple of years ago. For a small man, he too left a huge void. We still tend to speak of him as if he’s still around.

Thanks Sara, Ian and Kate. He got a good send off with a big turnout.
