Alexander passed away on June 17th and his wife died the next day.
The couple were due to celebrate their 75th wedding anniversary on June 29th and before she died, Jeanette became confused and told her children that it was June 29th.
They went along with it and Jeanette was delighted to think that she and Alexander had "made it to 75 years".
"We said happy anniversary, and my mother was thrilled because it was their anniversary and she knew that he was going and that they had made it to 75 years," said Aimee.
The couple, who had five children, ten grandchildren and six great grand-children, were buried in San Diego on Monday.
