This story reminds me that true love does exist. This story rises above all circumstances in this messed up world. This story is proof that love is the most important thing.
A couple in Oelwein just celebrated their 77th wedding anniversary. Their names are Royce and Frankie King. He’s 98, and she’s 97. The nurses who help care for them at home organized a photo shoot… because they didn’t have any ACTUAL wedding photos.
They got married on his two-day leave in 1944 before he went overseas to fight in World War II. They had no time for pictures or even a wedding gown.
So their nurses helped them renew their vows and did a whole photo shoot. He wore his old Air Force uniform, which he still fits into. They found her an old vintage wedding gown from the 1940s.
