Wow! Sorry to hear that, just because it is not on her own terms, but I know you two are prepared. Enjoy yourselves!
We went through this when Continental Resources closed the doors here in Enid and moved to OKC. They tried like hell to get her to re-locate and I told her if they found/offered me a job paying as much as I was making at the time, we'd consider it. Of course that didn't happen. A bunch of folks from Enid did re-locate and, like Shadowrider said, a year later the majority of them were no longer employed by CR. Some left of their own accord, others were let go after ripping up their lives here and re-locating.
