Would you like to tell a story about someone you've lost?

On this question, we discussed grieving. I said something about forming a grieving club, and I realized we could do it in the form of a question.

This is a place to talk about someone close to you, about whom you cared greatly (positively or negatively). The person could have died yesterday, or decades ago. The only requirement is that it should be someone for whom you grieve.

You can tell us about that person—whatever you want—maybe the things you miss. It helps to give context—what kind of relationship you had. And whatever you feel about your loss—this is a place for that.
