long time married men who lose their wives often get sick or worse within the first year after a spouses death.

We had the funeral services today. Very heartwrenching - he was a giant in the Denver Jewish community.

I thought we were going to lose him. He did right himself and lived for another 8 years. My dad remarried and also lasted about 8 years. Women seem to be more able to deal with it for some reason.

Appreciate seeing photos from Mrs Lewis' funeral. John Lewis is an icon and I feel so bad for his loss.
