I don't know why I am upset. She wasn't my stepmum as such. She was my dads wife. I didn't really know her that well. When my dad died, I kept in touch with her, sharing memories of my dad. We would write to each other and talk on the phone occasionally, christmas cards that kind of thing. She said she had some belongings and photos of my fathers that she wanted me to have at some point, which I would have adored, but she never got round to sending them. I daresay I will never see them now. I don't even know how she has died yet. I have only found out from an article in the family announcements bit of the newspaper in the deaths section. Nobody in her family has told me. They probably don't even know about me. It is her funeral tomorrow. I am sat here sobbing and I don't know why. sorry. will shut up now. Just needed to get it off my chest.
