The last two days both Dave and I have been able to reconnect with cousins we hadn’t seen for a long time. 
Dave’s cousin Bill was visiting from Alberta. He and Dave are nearly the same age and it was fun listening to them talk about old times in their home town of Leamington and at Bill’s parents’ cottage at Temagami. Dave was a best man at Bill’s wedding many decades ago.
I had lunch with my cousin Carol. We were born in the same year. It was great to catch up on our lives and those of our children. We talked about memories of our grandparents and how we are keeping busy in our retirement. Carol is an artist and she designed the invitations for our wedding many decades ago.
A cousin is a little bit of the past that can never be lost.
