Social events help widows cope with loss of loved ones By Melissa Davlin Times-News writer PAUL — At 89, Cleora Bills still drives and lives by herself. Until last year, she mowed her own lawn. Bills uses that inde- pendence to make sure Minidoka-area widows, like herself, get out of the house and on with their lives. Staying social helps some widows deal with loss. Bills has plenty of expe- rience with grief. In addi- tion to two sons dying, she lost her first husband almost 30 years ago, then 11 years later married her second husband, Noel Bills. Noel died in December 2006, leaving her a widow once again. To help herself and oth- ers cope with the passing of their spouses, she organiz- es socials and drives other widowed ladies to church.
