Hi friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic
It is extremely uncommon / not unknown / to have cardiac pain at this age - rather late for congenital Heart Disease and too early for Coronary Artery Disease
It is most likely from grief - situational or reactive / anxiety or depression is common in these circumstances.
However, it is wiser to get examined / have an EKG - just to be re-assured; rather than keep guessing
Take care
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck
