Yeah, that's how it works

My uncle, Prof. Rob Foy in Minnesota, died recently and a memorial was printed for him by his university, found online at "Please Remember Dr. Robert (Rob) C. Foy II in Your Prayers."

Rob was the husband of my mom's sister, Nancy. Rob was a "formidable landscape gardener," at which he labored with Nancy (who died in 2002):

The division of labor was simple: He did the work; his wife nodded her approval.

Yeah, most of us married guys have that arrangement.
