I am so sorry for your loss. My husband died unexpectedly when he was 64. I was devastated and still feel the pain of his loss. Please know, Judy, that everyone grieves in different ways. Don't let anyone tell you how to grieve. I know your pain. May your whole family give each other loving support. I am sorry to say that I never knew Fred or you. I am Brenda Womack Durden - formerly of Midville and now of Pennsylvania. May God console all of you as only He can. Peace.
