I'm not one to pick up the phone all the time. Usually I will if I know who calls. Well my parents are out tonight with the two other siblings at a boyscout halloween party and this is one of those nights where I feel like picking up the phone. My aunt called at 7:19 and told me my grandpa died of a heart attack earlier this afternoon, but thy couldn't get in touch with anyone. I had to take the news and now all my relatives are getting the message and calling, so they have to talk to me. It was just this summer that we visited him too. I wonder when I'll start to forget his voice or when I can't picture him anymore. This is the first time one of the family died in my lifetime and it's kinda awkward and sad at the same time.
