My Dad died when I was a kid, and my Mom got remarried when I was in college to a fine man. He passed while I was in my 2nd year in the Air Force in 1992. Mom passed in 2016. I've lost so many close relatives and friends, that I can't count them all at this point. It absolutely stinks, but just pray that your parents don't suffer. You (and they) have done well to have each other this long. That might not negate the pain, because there is no replacement. Think about all the good times, and make the best out of what you have left. You have been really blessed. Hang in there, because it will still be tough, but we have you in our thoughts.
