My grandfather passed away last week. Hopped on a last minute flight and have spent time with my family since. Flying home today. He and my grandma were married 60 years and never spent more then a few days apart, it's just heartbreaking.
I'm sorry to hear that, this must be very difficult for your grandmother. I cant imagine.
They were really in love too. Even a year ago, if a song she liked came on he would grab her hand and they would dance together in the living room. I once asked her what the secret was. She paused, and then said "well, you have to like the person". So I guess that's the trick. It's funny. They were very well off. He did well in business and they have several properties. But at his funeral, his business successes weren't mentioned much. It was his love for his family, his compassion and caring for his community that stuck with everyone. It's a real reminder what's important, I'll be lucky if I leave a legacy like his.
I'm sorry to hear of your loss. May your grandfather be at peace now. He had a love that few people ever get to have.
