Absent Friends

Just a thought while considering the thread "Drinks" created in 2011 - how many of the contributors have shucked off their mortal coils since then? Just scrolling through brings back memories and smiles.

Should Old Acquaintance be forgot,
and never thought upon;
The flames of Love extinguished,
and fully past and gone:
Is thy sweet Heart now grown so cold,
that loving Breast of thine;
That thou canst never once reflect
On old long syne.

Remember those who have died with warmth and joy for lives lived well and friendship received.
What's that? Dunno! Should we be worried about that? Dunno! How? Ah dunno!
