  No...I started paying for it in mid-2007, just after my wife's death. Just
over 10 years later, the policy got "paid off", and they stopping debiting
my bank account. I wish I had known about a "cremation only" deal, as it
would've saved me a bunch of money.

 AA> such a person would NOT harm himself to that degree. 

  I really don't know...the impression I get is that "he lives in his own
little world". He has no hobbies, and can't stand being at home alone. If
he's stuck at home with a bad snow or ice storm (as we've had in Arkansas),
he's "climbing the walls" from boredom.

  He also hates cooking at home, and eats out every day (I don't see how
he can afford it).
