My Pop died yesterday at age 97 years and 11 days.  He will be buried 
Wednesday on His and my stepmother's 38th wedding anniversary.  There were 
four of us family members to witness his last day.  He was only married to 
my mother for 32 years before her death at age 55.

I think it may be interesting that my stepmother's stepmother of 66 years 
will leave the same nursing home tomorrow after recovering from a broken 
hip.  She's 99 and will be going back to live alone in her own home.  She's 
sharp as a tack and will spend a lot of her time knitting items for others. 
She's very regretful she won't be able to attend the funeral.
