The very first one that I saw die was lying in repose when I opened my game. His poor wife had one dislike -- solitude. She was soooo sad for so long that I couldn't take it, so I finally just moved on to the next generation. I felt terrible though, like I was putting her "out to pasture" but I couldn't cheer her up no matter what I did and I just couldn't stand seeing her that way any longer.

Then last night after dinner, I sat down and opened my game and the couple in my 3rd family were both lying on the bed and I thought, "Huh? That's weird!" and right as I was thinking that, their spirits rose out of their bodies and they both stood there smiling and waving goodbye to me. Kind of shocking to open the family and they are both gone at the same time! But thinking about it, at least one wasn't left alone to mourn the other, so I guess that's better.
