Hugs to both Lost and Scarlet. I've been emotional about people I didn't know at all--after Tom Petty's death, I cried the next time I heard one of his songs (shortly after, when I was out somewhere). He's an artist whose songs I've listened to all my life, and a few have particular meaning to me (we played one at our wedding, though I forget which one now). I recall also crying about Prince, Robin Williams, and Anthony Bourdain. And quite a bit about ex-MC's wife, who I'd never met (though I think some of that was empathy for him).

So I get it--both of you were impacted by these people, even if you just knew them for a short time or through their work.
