Dear Abby advice column on weddings and aging norms

A reader seeks guidance on funeral attire for a spouse facing illness and on when to start dating after long marriage. Dear Abby advises wearing comfortable clothing, delaying wardrobe changes, and dating when ready. The column also notes anonymous gift responses and a Denver reader clarifying middle age as about 40 plus, elderly as around 80 summers.
