I am very sorry for your and your wife's loss. I hope that although this is a tremendous negative experience that you are able to find a way to separate it from the overwhelmingly positive one that you are (or are going to) experience. Your point is well taken, though, and we often let life get in the way of making sure that the loved ones in our lives are constantly reminded of the esteem that we hold them in. Even if parents, etc "know we love them" or "understand" when we are too busy to call, it is not an excuse. Best wishes with everything.
