A distraught husband died from a broken heart days after his beloved wife of 67 years passed away - just as he had predicted.
War veteran Ken Bartrip, 92, had told his family that if his wife Marguerite-Marie were to die before him then he didn't think he could go on without her.
He was proved right when the devastated grandfather died eight days after her death following a short illness.
So very sad. Hopefully, they'll be together now for Eternity.
Broken hearts can kill even young people. Thank you for the seed.
My pleasure, Wheel, thank you for your comment and vote.
That's true love isn't it?
Thank you Sandie.
Thanks, Carole, pleased you liked the story. Very sad.
Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww. What a heartwarming story. Sad but not so, in a way. They both enjoyed one another's company for a very long time. Their passion was their gift. A much happier ending than those couples who merely endure one another for decades in an effort to keep up appearances.
Thank you, Sandie!!
Your're most welcome, Rebecca. I'm pleased you found the story interesting.
(this is just a secret between you and I, but I cry daily)
Rob, sometimes I wish I could cry more often. It cleanses the soul.
