Elderly Couple Makes ‘Til Death Do Us Part’ A Reality
It often seems, in this day, wedding vows are just empty rhetoric. That seems particularly true of the phrase, "til death do us part." That wasn't the case with Tom and Delma Ledbetter. The Florida couple met in the 1950's, when they were in their early 20's. They took one another, for better or worse, in sickness and in health, 'til their death in 2017. Epoch Times says they died hand in hand within an hour and a half of one another, after 62 years of marriage.
