My condolences, Russ. I'm sure it's been a difficult year for you with this being the toughest of many things you've had to go through. Best wishes for better times ahead for you this year. Extra best wishes that the High Sierra will help the healing process, beginning with some exceptionally large trout.

Now it is about cleaning up finances as she had no will. As the surviving spouse, I have most of the control. Simple signing and notarizing. Her books were donated today back to the Buddhist group by my step daughter. She is cremated. Yet another process.
Again, smoking is bad. And I need a will just to take care of my real assets on the ground. Already changed my beneficiaries for my IRA.
Yes, I miss her, but she made choices I couldn't change.

Just now seeing this Russ, I'm so sorry for your loss. Smoking is a killer for sure, I've read that it is often more addictive than the best drugs around.
As you say, at least she is no longer in pain. May she rest in peace and my sincere condolences to you and your family.

I just saw this as well and am sorry for your loss and all that you have to go through as a result. Smoking is very addictive and a very difficult habit to break (I've read). I hope you and your family take good care.

Thanks. My dad is next. He is 82 and smoked a pipe and cigars for my lifetime. He has COPD and a history of asthma. I think some of this is genetic as his parents both smoked and lived well into their late 80's. I just signed the cremation papers for Bev.
Looking forward to my Humphreys and French basin adventure with Simba and 3 friends this September.
Hoping Cali won't be on fire then.
