1. That isn't a good sign for your marriage ...

2. It seems that "thoughts are things", as somebody put it. When awake we don't see them, but they're powerful, they act and attract. So, you might've had a minuscule role in your neighbor demise, through your thoughts about him. From what I read, it's better to forget than holding negative thoughts, fear, anger, etc.. It is neither necessary nor better to forgive, even less ... to turn the other cheek.

3. My suggestion: fuggedaboud'im! The takeaway: "thought are things".
