Well said. Had a similar experience back in 1997. Late-January ... uncle passed of a massive heart attack at 58 years old. He had worked 40 years for the same company, BCTel (now Telus), and had retired approximately one month prior. Healthy guy, but heart disease ran in the family. His first pension check arrived shortly after his death. He was survived by his wife & only son. Said wife died of cancer in 2012. The son is married with 3 children now. His parents would have loved to have been grandparents. I've told him several times his parents would be really proud of him today and the man he's become. Works as a teacher, as does his wife, and 2 of their kids attend that school.
