Dear Abby gives advice to a person who is overwhelmed with the amount of phone calls she gets from the husband of her late friend.

: My friend of 30 years passed away two years ago. Her husband, with whom I had a cordial relationship, has been calling me and other friends of his wife nonstop. He usually calls with irrelevant nonsense.

My initial reaction to his calls was that I am lucky I’m not so needy and lonely. I manage to cut the conversation to three to five minutes, and I’m never rude. This man is 80, lives by himself, and has an adult child near his home. It is my unprofessional opinion that because of his many health issues and inability to drive and really care for himself, perhaps he should be in assisted living.
