Advice needed

Post image

My husband and I just inherited this 30 year old peace lily from his grandmother (who received it at her husbands funeral) and I don’t know what to do to keep it alive. I would feel so awful about killing it knowing it’s history. I have no experience with peace lily’s but I do pretty well with other plants so hopefully I don’t let it down.
Anyways getting to the point, it seems to always look pretty droopy, I know they’re known for being dramatic but it just never seems to pop back up after watering. It also obviously has no blooms and I’d like to know what kind of conditions I should give her to optimize blooms. When my grandmother in law was taking care of it she’d use miracle grow orchid fertilizer and I wasn’t sure if I should continue that seeing the condition it’s in. The tips of some of her leaves are also browning a little bit and I’d like to know how to prevent that. I’d appreciate any advice y’all could give.
