A Death in the Family

My paternal grandfather passed away last night. I got the news by email, which my dad forwarded from my uncle, who was in Taipei with grandpa. They’d just taken him to the hospital that day; it was all very sudden. My uncle didn’t want to telephone because he thought it might have been too late at night to call (after 10pm in California).

I called my parents. I’m sad, but I feel worse for my dad. His father just died.
