George,
Carol was a nice lady and you always took care of her in my presents, and beyond. People could see your love for her. It just stood out. Visiting her grave site will be good. Someday you may go to the grave site and say her soul is not there. I believe she will stay for you in the area of the grave, if you frequently visit, but even that is not a sure thing.
I am getting ready to go to church to pray for your wife.
God bless,
Jim J
