By proceeding, I agree that I understand the following disclosures:
I. How We Work in Washington. Based on your preferences, we provide you with information about one or more of our contracted senior living providers ("Participating Communities") and provide your Senior Living Care Information to Participating Communities. The Participating Communities may contact you directly regarding their services. APFM does not endorse or recommend any provider. It is your sole responsibility to select the appropriate care for yourself or your loved one. We work with both you and the Participating Communities in your search. We do not permit our Advisors to have an ownership interest in Participating Communities.
II. How We Are Paid. We do not charge you any fee – we are paid by the Participating Communities. Some Participating Communities pay us a percentage of the first month's standard rate for the rent and care services you select. We invoice these fees after the senior moves in.
III. When We Tour. APFM tours certain Participating Communities in Washington (typically more in metropolitan areas than in rural areas.) During the 12 month period prior to December 31, 2017, we toured 86.2% of Participating Communities with capacity for 20 or more residents.
IV. No Obligation or Commitment. You have no obligation to use or to continue to use our services. Because you pay no fee to us, you will never need to ask for a refund.
V. Complaints. Please contact our Family Feedback Line at (866) 584-7340 or
[email protected] to report any complaint. Consumers have many avenues to address a dispute with any referral service company, including the right to file a complaint with the Attorney General's office at: Consumer Protection Division, 800 5th Avenue, Ste. 2000, Seattle, 98104 or 800-551-4636.

You owe this man no tears. He was a jerk with Mental problems. I had an Uncle like that. He weighed about 300#s and told my 12 yr old daughter she was fat. At 45, u do not mention his name around her.
There is no explanation for how we experience grief or relief with the death of a loved one. And sometimes it is a combination of both grief and relief. ( I just coined a new word..Grelief!)
Each of us will grieve in our own way in our own time.
If you feel nothing thats OK. You can't mourn for someone u were not close to. You can mourn you never were able to have a relationship but that was his fault, the narcissism made it hard to have a relationship. So, if you didn't cry a tear, thats OK.
So start there. You feel what you feel.
That's the beginning and the end of it.
Now on to rational THINKING which involves our evolved brain and our cerebral cortex. That is capable of saying "They did the best they could with their own limitations" or "I honestly can't say I am sad or sorry this person is gone; he/she was so difficult. But I do understand that he was dealing with his own limitations". Or "Some of us are nice and some of us aren't, and in all reality human beings can be real jerks" or or or or. You can work it out any way you like. Our rational thinking can help us deal with our feelings.
But as to changing FEELINGS, they come and go like weather systems. So just wait them out.
Then be grateful that you and everyone else won’t have to deal with him ever again.
You can also feel sad that they couldn't have been a more positive light in the world and hope that possibly they have shed all that negativity in the afterlife and are at peace.
What was your relationship with them?
