Broken Heart

Okay, I realize I already posted a topic for the day, but who says there can't be 2 topics? This was too cute of a story to pass up!

Today's 2nd Topic: Broken Heart


I read this story this morning (you can read by clicking HERE) and it just made my heart happy. Not because an older couple passed away of course, but because of how they passed away.

Marjorie Landis, age 87, died after suffering a long illness. Just 88 minutes later her 89 year old husband, James Landis, suffered a heart attack and died. The couple had been together for 65 years.

The couple's granddaugther, Erin Miller, said that her grandfather's last words to his wife were, "It's OK. I Love you. We had many good years together. I will see you real soon." And she believes he soon died of a "broken heart."

While it is incredibly sad that these two people passed away, I just think their story is about the cutest thing I have ever heard. It reminds me of the movie Titanic, when the older couple curled up on their bed, hand in hand, waiting to die together. True love is amazing and I just can't get enough of these heartfelt stories.

So what do you think? Could someone die of a broken heart?

Thanks For Reading,
Lindsey
