Son’s public outburst sparks bitter feud with father

DEAR ABBY: My wife of 47 years passed away 16 months ago after living with a disability for many years. I took care of her until the end and loved her with all my heart. Nine months after her passing, I became involved with another woman my age. I have two sons, 43 and 46. My younger son and my contemporaries are happy that I have found someone to share my life with. Being alone was not easy for me.
