I have a patron who really enjoyed the book P.S. I love you and is
interested in finding books related to this topic: romantic type story
with someone dying and leaving something behind for the other person to
discover after their death. She also likes the part of the person
becoming a stronger person and how they moved on with their lives.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance once again!

Try GOOD GRIEF by Lolly Winston. Very humorous despite the subject
matter. I especially enjoyed the audio version.

Description from Amazon:

A brilliantly funny and heartwarming debut about a young woman who
stumbles,then fights to build a new life after the death of her
husband.Lolly Winston has written an astonishing first novel. In Good
Grief she takes a sad situation and artfully finds the humor and pathos
to make readers smile and break their hearts at the same time.

James Patterson's Sam's letters to Jennifer and Suzanne's diary for
Nicholas... might be worth her reading... not your typical patterson
both have wonderful love stories in them...

The plot involves a widower finding out about his wife's secret charitable works after her death, rather than him finding something left specifically, but I think otherwise this might be a good match for your patron: Small Change, by J. Belinda Yandell.

Not a novel but a song with this theme: "Little Scraps of Paper" by Eric
Bogle.

Rose's Garden by Carrie Brown is similar to this
(Small Change by J. Belinda Yandell). A grieving
widower learns about his late wife's generosity and
compassion.

I would reccomend "LettersFor Emily" by Camrom Wright. Here's a link
to the amazon.com info as it's rather long to cut and paste here...
