Dr. Susan Balcom Walton lost her husband of 43 years, Mark, during the first year of the COVID pandemic, and found herself quarantined alone in her home, hundreds of miles away from her children and grandchildren. Anxious to maintain connections and learn to navigate her new life as a single, Susan began reaching out to a group of widows—some old friends and some suggested by other friends—to set up Zoom and phone conversations about their experiences and what advice they’d offer. Susan's new book, “Lunch with the Widows: What I Learned About Living After My Husband Died.” is based on her learnings from those wise and generous women. Retired from college teaching, Susan is the director of an academic nonprofit. She is married to Dr. George Scheff, and she and her late husband, Mark Walton, are the parents of three daughters and eight grandchildren.
