I am not alone

So a few weeks ago I was going into the store and as I was getting out of my van I overheard two men talking. One asked the other how he was and he replied " I am alone now, I lost my wife last year". I wanted so much to go up to this man and tell him " I am also alone" but being they continued to talk more I just turned away and walked into the store. Today I went to the cemetary by myself since it was a nice sunny day ( almost forgot what those are like) since I had not been out for awhile due to the cold weather. I noticed a car parked in the area when I arrived and a young woman with a small child so I stayed for a few minutes at Ian's grave then headed back to my van . As I was about to leave the lady(probably in her mid - twenties) approached my window and asked me if I had been visiting my husband's grave. I told her yes with tears rolling down my face and she said something just told her to come ask me because she was also there visiting her husbands grave. Her husband was shot and died in Dec. He was 25yrs old. I then told her what happened to Ian and how hard it has been dealing with his passing. I don't think it was a coincidence we both happened to be at the cemetary at the same time today. The lord knew we needed to meet each other and share in each others sorrow. Once again the lord is telling me "I am not alone". The lady asked me if it was okay to meet sometime as she had so much more in her heart to share so I got her phone number and agreed to call her. I know an angel was sent to me today to help me continue in my journey that has been extremely difficult . Thank you heavenly father and Ian.
