DNAeXplained – Genetic Genealogy
Five years ago, when I was on an archaeology dig on the Outer Banks of North Carolina, I received a phone call that a friend, Dianne, had suddenly died. She was too young to die, and hadn’t been sick, so to say it was a shock was an understatement. I had known Diane for more than 30 years.
When I first moved to Michigan, I met Dianne and Bob, her husband. We were all volunteers with the local Humane Society. Then one day, the conversation turned to genealogy. One thing led to another, and to the Family History Center, where Bob and Dianne were volunteers for over 30 years.
Did you notice that word? Were? Yes, Bob followed Dianne’s example and a couple of weeks ago, at the church, keeled over and died. The only consolation in all of this is that they are together now, and their last rescue cat died of old age just two weeks before Bob. Neither of them suffered.
It’s really difficult when these doors close for us, especially when they slam so unexpectedly. Thirty five years is a generation. We knew each other’s children when they were pre-schoolers, grade-schoolers – and then terrible teens – and then somehow blossomed into decent human beings.
But this isn’t about Bob and Dianne’s untimely deaths – it’s about their lives
