Oh no, Bobby,
I'm so sorry. You're going through a tough time right now with this loss
and the loss of your niece. Retirement is always a major adjustment, I've
heard. My dad coped by doing volunteer work for the local food bank. Bill
and Robin Ach, who are on this list, volunteer many hours at a local
hospital. Perhaps you can find a niche and do something you love.
