Those who leave always seem to find a way to tell the ones left behind that they are OK and it is time to move on. I have seen it happen many times - even when the ones getting the message don't recognize it.
I don't believe in coincidence so the only thing left is....
what-ever you want to call it.

She died in her sleep at the age of 85 in 1922. When the workers heard she was dead, they stopped, "even to the extent of leaving nails hammered in part way". Her safe contained locks of her daughter's and husband's hair, copies of their obituaries, and her will, written in 13 parts and signed 13 times. She left all her furniture to her niece, most of which was sold: it took eight truckloads a day for six and one half weeks to remove it all.
