An old couple who have been married for 67 years died three days apart.

A couple who had been married for the whole of 67 years have taken their love to the world beyond when they died within three days of each other, showing there was a great bond between them.

The wife, Margaret Weston, 86, was the first to die but just 72 hours later, the grieving widow, 95-year-old Harry, passed on to join her in what their family joyfully claim was a sign of their inseparability and living for each other.

Their only son John, 66, from Rutland, Leicestershire, said he believes it was because they couldn't stand to be apart.

He said:

"Mum's death was totally unexpected and dad went three days later. They lived for each other."
