    Yeah, this can be a generational cultural difference.

    I mourned the death of my grandfather three separate times when my mother texted me “please call”. Each time when I called back I learned something different:

    1. We had to change our lunch plans.
    2. There was an alarming local news article about driving conditions.
    3. My grandfather had died.
