A couple of years ago when my wife was undergoing chemo, we would go to our local one afterward. It gave her something to look forward to. The manager, a wonderful woman, starting noticing my wife, who as you expect, didn’t look her best. She’d come over and chat with my wife, asking her how she was doing, etc.

Then when the chemo was over and my wife was on hospice care, the last solid food that appealed to her was from here. So I’d drive over when she felt like she could eat a little, and again, the manager would ask about my wife.

After she died, I went back once just to tell the manager and to thank her for how nice she had been to her and tell her how much I appreciated her taking the time to chat with my wife.

I haven’t been able to go there since, though.

Condolences on your loss, and bless you for letting the manager know that angels can be anyone who cares.

Very touching story. Sorry for your loss.

I know it will be hard, but.... When you can, you should go back there... Try to remember the good times. It will help.

Peace be with you.
