True! But wonderfully long lives these men had and such exciting existences when young. Remember an aunt of mine saying at her husband's wake, "We've had a good life." She was upbeat because of the gratefulness filling her soul, and her life was nothing compared to these men! Regardless, may God bless their families! It's hard to lose any member of an immediate family, spite their age. And that goes for close friends, as well.
