As you all know I work part time at a luxury senior living facility and these people are something else since they have money. Anyhow one of the residents son's came in and I asked how his dad was doing and he tells me he just passed. So I give my condolences and he tells me how great his dad was and that he was 98 as he is telling me how hard it is to lose a love one I say to him I lost my sister law two days before Christmas and he basically tells me her life was not important because she did not live to see 98. WTF!!!!!!!!!!! at first I wasn't going to say anything but I just couldn't, so I say to him just because she did not live to see 98 doesnt mean that she did not make an impact on peoples lives, she was a teacher whose children loved her as well as I. Can you believe him?
Now I am boiling mad

While it is not an excuse, we never know how grief will affect people. While his behavior was hurtful (and bad) I'm sure he wasn't insensitive on purpose.

Every life has value and some, such as a teacher's is truly a gift that continues through generations.
Toss his comment into the cosmos and rock on.
