After more than fifty years of marriage, Jacques died peacefully in his sleep

After more than fifty years of marriage, Jacques passes away peacefully in his sleep. Simone, his wife, is devastated by his departure. Their life together had been punctuated by ups and downs, arguments and reconciliations, but above all by an unwavering bond.

Months pass and, as if her heart could not bear the absence of her husband, Simone also passes away. When she opens her eyes in the afterlife, she discovers a celestial landscape of unparalleled beauty: cottony clouds, a soft and comforting light, and an atmosphere of absolute peace.

Suddenly, in the distance, she sees a familiar figure… Her heart leaps. Jacques! He is there, alive and well—at least, as alive as a deceased person can be in heaven. A huge smile lights up her face as she runs toward him, arms wide open.
