One of my favorite clients passed away yesterday. Her husband is absolutely torn to pieces. Although she was 70, she was extremely healthy until this happened, so it sounds strange to say of a 70 year old, but it was very unexpected.

She and her husband were among the first of my higher net worth clients to really put their trust in me when i first opened my business. A couple of times each month they would stop by the office just for coffee and would pretend to have questions about the account, when in reality they just enjoyed chatting with a "youngster".

She will be missed, by many, but especially so by her husband. I am not good at comforting people and have no idea what to say to a man who has just lost his partner of 53 years.
