One of the first significant losses for someone is the loss of a grandparent. This loss is more severe than other more distant losses. For some, this loss comes early in their life, for others, it is during young or middle adulthood where they finally say farewell to their grandparents. For some as well, this loss may sting more if the relationship and attachment was stronger.
