Sorry for your loss...
Sort out all of the memories of all those years. If you come to anything negative hit
delete in your mind and move on to more good ones. There is nothing to be gained by
dwelling on "if" or "could have" or "should have" but a tremendous benefit from relieving
the good times. As time passes you will remember more and more good times.
If you were there you made a difference...
