5 or 70, It Doesn't Matter

My grandmother passed away this morning. The first of grandparents to go. I haven't heard my grandfather cry so much, even on the phone when I talked to him. They were together 70+yrs.

Whether we had 5 years or 70 years, heartbreak is heartbreak. I know what he is feeling.

I will be seeing him tomorrow night after work and just sitting with him.
