you know those memorials people run in the obits?

first it's "on Tuesday last our dear shmoopy shuffled off this mortal coil to be with the baby Jesus blah blah blah"
then it's "'twas a month ago today you were taken from us, blah blah blah"
then it's "has it really been a year since the angels spirited you away in their feathery embrace blah blah blah?"

and on an on and on.

they do it for the attention, you know. And the casseroles.
