Loss always hurts

 My father died the day before yesterday, and today was the funeral. He had lived to the ripe old age of 99. It was even announced that he had been the last army officer of the Kingdom of Bulgaria (my country has been a republic since 1946). And he was increasingly confused by the end. Still, the loss hurts.

He was a great man. His books are at the top shelf of my library where I have put only the most important things I have ever read. I was lucky enough to listen to him in person a couple of years ago. It's a great personal loss, but also a big loss for us as a society. My condolences!
