The whole issue of losing your spouse sounds dreadfully sad. We really need to recall all the losses our parents have endured.

My dad and FIL have lost most of their family members from their generation and many, too many friends.

That's why I think it's so important for us to have friends from all generations, and to soemhow continue to make friends into our very old age.
