My Mom and Dad were at the airport waiting to board their plane to go on a cruise when my Mom collapsed and immediately died. Her and my dad were married for 63 years and they loved each other fiercely. While she was suffering with memory loss and had been in the hospital the week before after suffering "a mild heart attack or mild stroke" (she was given the all clear to go on the cruise - said heart muscles looked good?), it was so unexpected. My Dad immediately started CPR on her but she was gone so quickly.
They had a wonderful life together. They had been on over 25 cruises, traveled cross country in an RV, been to Europe and I never saw them have a single argument. Such wonderful parents.
She told my sister that week that she still had a lot of living to do. Please say a little prayer for my Dad or send good thoughts that he doesn't die of a broken heart. I never thought losing a parent, especially one that had such a loving, long and full life, would be so difficult.

No matter when we lose a loved one it is much too soon. How wonderful she felt she still had a lot of living to do - to keep that love of life for your entire life. I am sorry for this deep loss to you and yours.

I am so sorry for your loss. We can all "hear" the love and pain in the words you wrote. Your parents sound waonderful and were so very blessed to have spent 63 years of loving life and each other together. As sad as it is that your Mom has passed, to pass while living life the fullest is the one great positive I take from this. I will keep your Dad and your family in my thoughts during this very sad time. I hope your Dad does continue to go on amazing adventures after the pain lessens, if he doesn't that will be an even bigger loss. {{hugs}}

You have always been a part of the heist. You're only mad now because you don't like your cut.

I'm so sorry. I hope someone was able to be with your dad quickly. I'm sure the feelings of helplessness, confusion, disbelief must have overwhelmed him.
