My paw paw died when he was 68. They were married for 50 years at that point. My grandma has a picture of him the day he started his own company, and has had it right next to her bed since he died. Every night for the past 21 years, she talks to the picture for a few minutes and kisses it before she goes to sleep. She was 100% ready to go when he died, and has been ever since then. She just stopped getting up out of bed to go do things during the day after that

what`s more sad is when a spouse dies and the remaining spouse appears happier, my Dad and my mother-in-law both passed and weren`t the best of people to live with, both remaining parents seem relieved..i`m 49 been married for 25 yrs, when my girl goes, well i can`t even imagine, we are everything to one another. Really hope you young guys get to have that in your lives.
