How sad for him and his family. He doesn’t look that old to have been married for 35 years, or to have grandchildren. God bless her soul. May she rest in peace, and may the Lord bless and comfort Thomas and the rest of their family, and loved ones.

He started dating her 35 years ago. Both went to MIT born in ‘71
