My condolences, that sucks!  You'd think after 21 years they could have 
at least waited another two.  I assume since you've been doing a good 
job for quite some time at the job you'll either be able to get another 
or make do with a slightly early retirement, but still, my sympathies. 
I'm certainly not looking forward to when I have to worry about that 
sort of thing.
