Sorry to hear the news. At least you saw him when he was well & happy and like others said, 87 is a good age for a guy.

My uncle sadly passed away last night and was only about 71. He had a stroke a few years back so things were not easy as he couldn't talk & walk properly, and as my aunt didn't have great health and was unable to look after him he went into a home (he was a tall man too) nearby. He hadn't been looking well recently and had another big stroke a couple of weeks ago and went into a coma. So sad as we was an active & intelligent man.
