I came across this touching story from the Huffington Post. This is a story of true love, not the commercialized variety Hollywood likes to peddle. These are real people who understood real love.
From Huffington Post:
After 67 years of marriage, Floyd and Violet Hartwig died on February 11 just five hours apart at their home in Easton, California.
With their beds pushed together, the couple held hands up until Floyd’s last breath, The Fresno Bee reports. Violet died five hours later.
“We felt blessed because we knew that’s what they wanted,” their daughter Donna Scharton said.
“When we went to the funeral home and saw the two caskets, it was meant to be,” she said. “And that’s the only way it could end.”
