In so many ways, my long departed Grandfather who passed away in 1984 resembled Ronald Reagan. Although he died too young, at the age of 67 from a stroke that was caused by a clot in his leg, my Grandparents had a bond that oft times reminds me of the bond between Nancy and Ron.

When news came that Ronald had passed away, we both cried, and my Grandmother and I started to reflect on my Grandfather, and we laughed and cried, and it really did me in when my Grandmother said that "He should still be here".

My Grandmother, who I live with and take care of, has been widowed for over 20 years now.

Being old and alone is not good. She's lucky to have you.
