Minor grammatical nitpick

In the later life section, I have twice corrected "was survived" to "is survived". The latter is most definitely correct - they are still live so they survive him (present tense), therefore, he is survived by them (present tense). I also corrected "preceded him in death" (which sounds like something from a tombstone) to the less euphemistic "predeceased". – ukexpat (talk) 19:04, 10 February 2010 (UTC)
