On the wife's side of the family.
Her uncle passed late last week, and found out her aunt went a couple days later. Have funerals Saturday and Sunday to attend.
Getting older blows as you watch those who of the previous generation go.......

Sorry to hear that, AEN.

I’m about out of aunts and uncles too.

Thanks nafod.
I'm the oldest on my side and was an early baby, so all of my aunts and uncles are only 18-20 years older than me. My wife was a late life accident, so her parent's generation is 10 years older than on my side.

Condolences.....I hadn't thought about it much but I have no aunts or uncles left. My mother is the last of that generation.
