Video Description:

When Blossom lost her mate Bud earlier this year, the staff at the Iowa cemetery pond where the two geese had been living took out a personal ad to find Blossom a new partner. And it surprisingly worked. Steve Hartman has more on how the new couple are faring in "On the Road."..

    I never thought of a goose missing its mate but evidently it happens. Sweet story; I am glad these geese found someone to fill in for the mate that went on to Goose Heaven.

    My great grandmother died young and is buried in Ohio with my great grandfather's name on the marker but no dates. That's because he moved to the West Coast after she passed, never remarried, and died in Washington State where he is buried with only his name and dates on his grave marker. Sometimes the other name on the gravestone relocated but isn't necessarily still alive.

    I loved it. Experienced something similar several years ago and it makes one realize that "love" or something like it, rules the world.

    Hi Randy, We're in the same club. After 55 years married to my husband, he died 7 years ago on Dec 24, so this week is much more sad for me. Our sweet dog went to be with my husband only 5 months ago, but I take every day and keep busy. I too don't want to date and just keep busy at home. Yes, I'm lonely, but I'm okay, My son is near so I see his dog and his dog stays with me when he's away. Mel, take care and keep busy, but cry if you want to.

    This is wonderful. Sadly, I don't live in Iowa and I'm not a goose. But, maybe, some day...
    Thanks, Mel. Happy New Year.

    I love this story! Sadly, I can relate, as I am a widower. It's been a little over 2 years since the love of my life relocated to heaven after 51 years of marriage. I still get lonely, sometimes worse than others, but I have no desire to get married again. Maybe in the future. Maybe never. Only God knows.
