PoisonedHeart says,

Dad. Mom. They're here, but everything's just gone to pieces. We can't talk at all without fighting.

Wench says,

My grandmother, great-grandmother, and my first roommate.

maryjane31 says,

I miss my mother most of all. My father died so many many years ago, that I don't miss him as much as my mom. Also my best friend from high school,who died tragically at the age of 50. Shocker, and something I never fully got over. Her name was Teresa.

Dean6805 says,

Both of my maternal grandparents, but mostly my Granddad. I miss him every single day.

MsKillie says,

A friend who passed away unexpectedly a few months ago. I still haven't quite wrapped my head around him being gone, probably never will. I'm good friends with his sister too, so seeing her pain has also been very difficult. There is a big benefit concert for him coming up soon and I know he would be so honored that so many people loved him dearly. Miss him a lot...I keep thinking of things I want to tell him and then realize I can't. We always think there will be more time, sometimes there isn't.

There are those I miss who are still here, but the times we had have passed and will never come again....and that's what I miss most.

marymc says,

I lost 5 of my best friends to a drunk driver back in high school. 34 years later, I still miss them.

SingerSomewhere says,

Two friends who have died in the past two years. A girl from my church who used to be my friend, but now everything's different. Who I thought my parents were when I was a kid and they were "perfect".

Dragonflower says,

I miss someone I didn't even know. He was an author. Robert B. Parker. I miss my dentist. He had bone cancer and was doing OK after rounds of bone marrow transplant. Then he caught pneumonia and died. I miss him more than anything. He was a great dentist and so kind. His name was Dr. Lowe. I miss my sweetheart. He wasn't right for me, but I miss him all the same. And, mostly, I miss all the characters on The O.C. Ryan most of all.

JAD says,

My three siblings who I lost in 10 months time. So hard, miss them something terrible.

ba_miracle says,

I miss the little brother and sister that I shared lives with on my birth mother's side but would never go seeking them. I miss my loved ones on the West coast (almost everyone I love lives there). I miss my daughter big time (she's 22 and "grown" ;-) and will always miss the son I gave up for adoption.

I miss my mom (my last foster mom) who passed away several years ago, I miss one of her sons (one of my brothers who is in prison).

Actually too long a list of people/pets who've past. I call them little slices of love (that have been taken out of my physical life). And while this may sound strange I feel some of them with me sometimes.
Call it haunting or living on in memory but in a way I still have them.

Dhani says,

I'm not 'missing'anyone, because in truth, NO ONE DIES! Death doesn't 'kill' us, it only transports us to another FORM. (Doesn't the idea of eternal life thrill you?)

ctgoods2 says,

Uncle Scorpi

TheAngstyPoet says,

My MomMom. Some residents at the nursing home I used to work at. Gail who used to help me make coffee in the morning for group. David who sang the best in church. Cornelia who was a pain in the butt to feed but my all time favorite. Rocco who always hummed and put the bingo chips in cups for Tuesday and Thursday nights.

I also miss a lot of people who used to be my friend.
