I woke up this morning to find that Grace, the love of my life, my partner, lover, best friend and more, had passed away during the night. I had no warning at all; she had been having some health issues but nothing that suggested that she was in mortal peril.
We were married for 43 years.
I had a scheduled legal ethics seminar, and, of course, taught it as planned. After all, it was about professionalism.
I may write some more about this, depending on how I feel as the day goes on.

I am so sorry, Jack. May her memory be a blessing to you and your family.
So sorry for your loss Jack. You have my deepest condolences.
Long time reader. You have taught me how to be a better person and more ethical in my life and judgements.
Please stay strong, we are with you.
I am so sorry for your loss.
Jack, so incredibly sorry for your loss. I can’t imagine what you’re going through nor adequately say how sorry I am.
I’m so sorry to hear this, Jack. My heart truly goes out to you.
Dear Jack,
I extend my deepest condolences on the loss of your wife. May her memory be for a blessing. May God give you the strength to bear her loss, and the wisdom to always remember most often the good times.
