ALEX - Can the living be sealed in the temple to the dead? Situation Grandmother and Grandfather married for many years. Grandmother a member and endowed. Grandfather not a member and has passed. Can he still be sealed to the Grandmother while she is still alive?

JOEL - Yes. After a year has passed since the grandfather's death, his temple work can be done(baptism, endowments, etc.) and then she can go to the temple and have a proxy stand in for her husband and perform the sealing. The only restriction I know on such situations is if a worthy member dies within one year of a civil marriage, the sealing of the couple may be performed when one year has passed since the civil marriage.
