On top of that, every day last week, it was my job to research how the coronavirus was going to affect

Death is inevitable for everyone, nobody lives forever. But that doesn’t mean it doesn’t jar you a bit and tear you down when it happens. It seems like death was a big topic this week and it seemed appropriate to talk about it here. First, there was the death of Kobe Bryant, his daughter, and
