Was there an age when people you knew started dropping like flies?

Just came back from a funeral of someone who was 50. He died of a heart attack. My partner’s neighbour whom she sails with is dying of liver cancer. He is in his mid 60’s.

A good friend’s Mom just died of cancer a few months ago and now her Dad is dying.

I’m 40. And there seems to be a lot of death and dying going on around me right now.
