It's still kind of surreal to think that my son (who was born last year) will never get to meet him, even though we named him after my dad.

Yeah both of my grandfathers died before I was born; Ive always kinda wondered what it would have been like to know them.

I meant to respond to this earlier.

Because of COVID, my dad hadn't visited since 2019, when my daughter was barely 2. He planned a trip this Summer.

She would speak to him over Facetime and on the phone over the years, but when I tried to explain to her that my dad had passed, she kept saying "but what about auntie, we just saw her".

The auntie she's talking about is my wife's sister who visited recently, not MY sister, and I realized that she doesn't even remember my dad, she just think's he's the same grandpa as my wife's dad this whole time.

I'm really sorry, my friend. It may be insensitive to mention, but hearing of friends endure loss like this makes me realize how priviledged I am to still have both my parents and grandma, and all nearby enough that I see them most days. My grandma is likely in the final stage of her life, so I'm trying to make each moment with her count.

No it's not insensitive at all, it's a really weird thing that we all have to deal with. One of my dad's friends that I'm Facebook friends with posted about doing things with her dad today for the holiday, and it's just like, wow.
