Nettie Belle, that's a really sweet story. And I do think that people can die of a broken heart. My Grandma's aunt and uncle died a couple of years ago, they were in their 90's. She died first, and about a month later he died.

My dad's show biz partner and his wife died a month apart from each other, too. She had alzhiemers (sp?), he had some kind of cancer, but he took care of her until a couple of months before he died, then their kids took care of both of them. This time he died first. Dad really misses Dave, he was Dad's best man.
