She is referring to the fact that I have begun reading the obituary pages in the Ledger, Enterprise and Reporter on a much more regular basis. “Why can’t you pick a paper and read ‘em to your heart’s content?” It’s because I don’t want to miss a single one. The Ledger doesn’t carry all the Brockton deaths nor does the Enterprise cover many of the Quincy notices. The Reporter gives us the Tri-Town area and Pembroke. I don’t want to miss a one of them.
