Sad But Lovely: Couple Married For 75 Years Die In Each Other's Arms (Photos) by Defcon1(m): 7:07am On Jul 03, 2015 |
A poignant photo has emerged which shows an elderly couple who were married for 75 years fulfilling their final wishes to die together. Jeanette Toczko, 96, and her 95-year-old husband, Alexander Toczko, from San Diego, California, died just hours apart as they held hands in bed. The pair spent their lives in love after becoming boyfriend and girlfriend when they were only eight years old. But several weeks ago, Mr Toczko suffered a broken hip in a fall and was left bed-bound A local hospice delivered a special bed to his home, which staff pushed up next to his beloved wife's bed. As Mr Toczko's condition quickly declined, Mrs Toczko's own health took a turn for the worse. The couple had always said they wished to die 'in their own bed, holding hands, in each other's arms' Read their beautiful story here: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3147837/PICTURED-dying-embrace-husband-wife-married-75-years-died-just-hours-apart-held-hands-bed.html 1 Share

The legendary late British actor, Christopher Lee (Saruman in LOTR trilogy), was married for 54 years! When he was asked the secret behind his long-lived marriage, the interviewer was expecting a long list of romantic moves (like you see everyday on here), instead, Christopher Lee simply said, " marry someone wonderful". 1 Like

Babe2sure:Sure. That is what marriage should be all about - enduring love to the end. Sadly, many children of nowadays don't even last up to a year in marriage. We now value weddings and engagements more than marriage, forgetting they are two totally different things. |

Which kind nonsense story be this "died hours apart" Perhaps they waited for one to die before "killing" the other one The chances are just to slim for that kinda natural death. 1 Like |

NnamdiN: My major concern is even the fact that they left husband's corpse for HOURS with the living wife before she finally died. Gross!!! |
