Chapter Chapter 18 in L.E.J. Brouwer – Topologist, Intuitionist, Philosopher, 2013, pp 783-832 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract After his retirement, Heyting became the resident intuitionist. Brouwer himself resumed his habit of traveling. He visited and lectured abroad, e.g. in Finland, the US, and South Africa. In particular the grand tour of Canada and the US gave him much pleasure; he met many old friends who had emigrated, including Einstein, Gutkind, Gödel. At home he was involved in the management of his wife’s pharmacy, a complicated affair with relocating the shop, reconstructing the building, etc. His wife died in 1959 and he died when crossing the road in front of his house, hit by a couple of cars.
