So he lived 29 years longer than his wife and her son.

Wow, this guy was a piece of work...
Killed his common law wife in 1976...
Killed his second wife in 1985 two years after getting out of prison for the first murder...
Then he killed her 5 year old son...
This guy lived about 28 years too long...

There are 4-5000 people on death row. Start now and clean all of them off death row. It would be a sign that America does not tolerate rotten murderers et al.
