Thanks everyone. We knew it was coming. She had a stroke earlier in the year and she never really recovered from it. That and for a few years her health was declining.

I am more concerned about my grandmother at this point.

Aunt Martha and her husband (who died a few years ago) were I believe getting close to their 65 wedding anniversary.

Isn't the record or at least the current one for a living married couple like 81 years?

Our parents had their 50th anniversary a few years ago. I took them on a Caribbean cruise. They loved it.

I can't believe I'm the first one here to say this, but...
Here's wishing a huge Happy Birthday to both Harrison Ford (73) and Sir Patrick Stewart (75.) Many returns!
