I offer my deepest sorrow for you and your family, Eileen. We are young at heart no matter what happens to our bodies. No matter how long you are married you always remember your spouse as they looked when you first met. I would like to believe your parents are strolling hand in hand together, forever. Just like they planned. Life is good. After life is great!
