Doug Flutie (very sad story)

Both parents pass away on same day.
Physically unrelated events.

Wow, how sad, is all I can't say at the moment.

That's horrible. Like Flutie I also believe people can die of a broken heart.

I've seen or heard of many elderly people passing shortly after a long time spouse.
Never within hours like this.
I have no proof but believe in my heart that his death contributed to hers.

Yeah this is really sad

While sad for their deaths, I find it pretty cool that they died within hours. Talk about commitment. "Until death do we part"? Not them. 59 years just wasn't enough time together.
