Dear Lon, I am so very sorry. The bond you shared with Lin was so sweet, so obvious to all of us reading your words all these years. I know you will miss her terribly until you meet again.
It is the saddest time we face in life, to lose someone we love so so deeply. Lin sounded like such a lovely strong and incredibly caring person. As blessed as you have been for 47 yrs, you will need to surround yourself with a huge amount of support. I'm glad you'll have your daughter staying with you this month and that you have such a warm loving family.
My deepest condolences to you and your family and gentle hugs from afar.
