We hear stories of couples that are married so long they start to resemble one another and similar things, these two are an example of one of them who in their many happy & wonderful years spent together became one right to the end.
Together for 71 years, couple die only four hours apartRocky Mountain News "During their 71 years of marriage, Don and Myrtle Rutledge rarely spent any time apart. In the early days, Myrtle picked up the family and followed Don when his job uprooted him. When one was confined to a hospital, the other stayed right there at the bedside.
They even went fishing together (the family insists Myrtle was the better fisherman), dropping lines in the water whenever they found a little time. So it was fitting, then, that when Don died just after 11:30 a week ago Monday night, Myrtle passed away just four hours and five minutes later, in the same room at the Golden Living Nursing Home in Southaven near Memphis."
