content: My grandparents were both polish and married for 56 years. When grandma past of ALS my grandfather lost his life long companion. It was so hard to see. They did everything together, one could not live without the other. Within 2 months my grandfather also past. He was actually at the Dr office for a checkup and died while just sitting on the exam table.  The good that can come from two people committed to each other and sharing the same values can not be surpassed. They taught me this and I only needed to look at their life to see that it is true.
