Why are we doing this? He was 79, a heavy smoker, overweight and probably didn’t exercise or eat right. 79 is a blessing. Most don’t even make it that long.

You're right. My parents died at ages 72 and 69. My brother died at 51. My two sisters died at 69 and 74. All were smokers. I've never smoked, but have had four surgeries since 2010: temporary colostomy, reversal surgery, repair of incisional hernia, and open gall bladder surgery (this past October). I'm 68, and thank the Lord for every day he gives me.
Most men don't have access to the greatest possible health care of the kind SCOTUS justices have, either.
