At least they grew old together...very old. Thank you for giving them that.

Oh, how sad. I wonder who's supervising Pam -- is it their kids, rotating the mom-sitting? This could be about many, many elderly couples. That's a good, long life, though he had, though.

I loved these - so sweet and so sad. My only problem is a medical one: if Jim had a degenerative disease, it's unlikey he'd live into his 90s, or, if he developed it so late in life, it's unlikely that he'd linger as long as it seems he did. I would just expect to see him die younger, or else have some other ailment like cancer that might strike so late and last so long. Sorry to be a downer, though I suppose the topic calls for it.
Author's Response: Good point, but in my own defense, I suppose medicine could have changed quite a bit by 2072,

Oh no! Jim is dead and Pam has dementia/Alzheimers. That is a double whammy of angst. I like that you gave Jim a nice long life. And Pam won't be sad or lonely since she doesn't remember. But I am now very sad and depressed. So thanks. (just kidding.)
Author's Response: Thanks for the comment. Sorry I depressed you. :)

What a sad ending for Jim. At least he lived a long life, and had Pam at his side when he passed (even if she didn't know who he was). This chapter is very haunting.
Author's Response: Thanks for the comment!

A well written series larrymcg. This one in particular brought back all the feelings I had watching the closing scenes of SFU. Brilliant series - really like the way you've used the idea for our friends in the Office.
Author's Response: Thanks so much for the comment! I really appreciate it.

Well, that's just sad. :(
Author's Response: Yeah it is, but at least he lived a long life!

Ok, so he lived to be 93? And together with his true love for what, at least 60 years? That's a pretty good life. I have a great aunt and uncle in their 90's and they're both still together. Very lucky. But you still made me cry, Larry.
Author's Response:
Sorry I made you cry :(
I'm really glad you liked it, though! Thanks for the review.

Gah! Larry, you're killing me with these. At this rate, I'll be the next one to go. So sad, and yet so good. You astound me.
Author's Response: Thank you so much! I really appreciate it.

Ok, I'm glad you made Jim almost a hundred. I'm still sad though. Poor Pammy.
Author's Response:
Sorry I made you sad. :(
Thanks for the comment!

I am so sad right now. That is the worst way to die, when the people you love don't even know who you are.
Author's Response: At least there was alot of happiness before the sad, though. Thanks for the review!

Aw! You're killing me! Stranger!? Stranger? I think I might cry. :(
It was still good, however terribly depressing. :)
Author's Response: Awww, I'm sorry, but at least they had a long life together!
