Just learned that a high school classmate 'passed away in her sleep this morning. She was very Happy [View all]

in her life,' her friend posted. It seems she was happy in her 'recent' life, but I learned a while ago she'd been mistreated and unhappy for years, something most of us did not know.

It's been many years since we've seen eachother; I don't recall whether she attended our unofficial reunion 'back home' 10+ years ago, attended by 100+, and she didn't make it to 'reunion' @ my house honoring our 70th birthdays 7 years ago.

SO, will be thinking/feeling mortality today.

(I learned today, Saturday, that she passed in passed away in Missoula, Montana. I knew she'd moved from Florida, where she'd lived for some years, away from our Long Island NY home, but I didn't know to where she'd moved.)
