I'm not sure that words are needed for this picture.
I have cried and cried over it...not necessarily out of sadness...although there is some of that there...
These are two very sweet people...specifically they are my BFF's Nanny (aka Earlene) & her husband Jack.
Jack is Earlene's second husband...and Earlene is Jack's second wife. They were both widowed...I think about the same time and were married 21 years ago. Jack & Earlene went to church together...knew each other and knew each other's spouses. They are good, kind, loving people.
And as I write this post, Jack is losing his battle with cancer. This isn't completely unexpected, as he was diagnosed in late March/early April. But, the doctors didn't give much hope of being able to put the cancer in remission and rather than spend his final days sick from the effects of chemo & radiation, he decided to enjoy them with his wife and family.
I just love this picture...the love that is shown between these two...
In sickness and in health...
Till death do they part...

Brought tear to my eyes reading this. I think of my own grandparents, who were married almost 50 years! My grandpa lost a battle with pneumonia and only a few months later, my grandma passed due mostly to the loneliness with out my grandpa. I'm thinking of them!
I'm crying. Too sweet my friend, too sweet.
