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.
