Your post pulls a lot of heart strings for me. For me, it was the year 2001, when myself and extended family attended 7 funerals in one year. At the end we were becoming so desensitized the morbid jokes were starting to come out that would shock quite a few. Seriously, laughter seemed like the only way to cope after a while. It was surreal.
I am very sorry for the losses, and happy for the new beginnings. You faced and handled all of them the best anybody could hope for.
