I am so sorry to read this news. I offer my deepest condolences for your loss. Please know that I'm sending heartfelt thoughts to you and your family.
I hope that when my time comes, I'll be able to slip out of the world as peacefully and as dignified as your wife.
When my mum passed away in 2017, I played this Youtube clip at her funeral. For some reason, watching the fire burn while listening to Il Divo sing about travelling to the other side of the rainbow brought me a great deal of comfort. I hope it brings you comfort too.
I am so sorry to hear about your loss. It is a great testimony that you had 60 years together. I. know you are comforted that she passed peacefully, but I also know the pain of loss.
I haven't kept in touch as much with you this past year, due to some significant health situations in my life, and in my wife. But I have often thought of you. Please know that my prayers are with you, and your family.
May God give you peace and comfort through this time.

Folks will say they know how you feel but no one but you know that, we are all different. But I do have a fair idea having been in the same position 17 years ago when I lost my wife to the big C. I went thrashing around looking for someone to blame for some while. I don’t push religion on folks but I found the thoughts in this poem seemed to help a bit.
Footprints in the sand
One night I dreamed I was walking along the beach with the Lord. Many scenes from my life flashed across the sky. In each scene I noticed footprints in the sand. Sometimes there were two sets of footprints, other times there was one only. This bothered me because I noticed that during the low periods of my life, when I was suffering from anguish, sorrow or defeat, I could see only one set of footprints, so I said to the Lord, “You promised me Lord, that if I followed you, you would walk with me always. But I have noticed that during the most trying periods of my life there has only been one set of footprints in the sand. Why, when I needed you most, have you not been there for me?” The Lord replied, “The years when you have seen only one set of footprints, my child, is when I carried you.” ________________________________________ Mary Stevenson, 1936
I also found that once I could listen to music with out falling apart gradually helped but that was at least 9 months down the line. 17 years on I can smile about the good times. My thoughts are with you, Mike
I am so sorry for your loss Don. it saddens me greatly. Take comfort in knowing that her spirit crossed over with the dignity and gentleness of the life she led.
She died in her sleep with no pain, thanks to the wonderful nurses at Hospice.
Howdy Don....
I've kept up with your/wife health updates. I can't find words that actually add to the heart felt responses here. But...I'll sincerely echo all of them.
