VOGEL, Judge
(dissenting).
I dissent. I find the amount of alimony set by the trial court adequately remedies inequities between the parties at this stage of their lives and the attendant economic consequences of the dissolution. To modify by reducing the amount of alimony, greatly reduces Carolyn’s ability to be able to meet her basic needs. Furthermore, relieving George’s estate of future alimony payments, although appropriate under certain circumstances, in this ease minimizes Carolyn’s continuing need for financial support.
I would affirm the district court’s decision in all respects.
STREIT, J., joins this dissent.
