My uncle is that little old lady. He goes to his wifeโ€™s gravesite every day. Her tombstone has his name and picture next to hers, with and empty space where his death date should be. He sits on a granite bench and talks to her. Every day. Heโ€™s 96. He really shouldnโ€™t be driving. But he does, so he can visit her. He asks her why heโ€™s still here. Sheโ€™s been gone over a decade. I miss her too.

They were middle school sweethearts who lived next door to each other growing up in a tiny town in SD. They used to go to bed at night as middle schoolers literally with a homemade telephone (tin cans and a string) between their bedroom windows.

Love like that is incredible.
