Proof That True Love Lasts A Lifetime: Man Carries His Wife’s Picture With Him Wherever He Goes

This man’s love for his wife lasted a 10 year search, 55 years of marriage and is now captured in a photo that he carries with him everywhere. A man was pictured in a fast food restaurant, eating alone with a photograph of what other customers assumed were his late wife.  

Oh my god I just died!!! He has a picture of his wife with him as he eats! I love him I love love pic.twitter.com/c9t0qKJfEi — ℳadi ℬash (@Maaadina) October 22, 2014

  Twitter user Madina Bashizadah took a snap of the widower eating with the portrait next to him, telling The Huffington Post: “The older gentleman was sitting down enjoying his meal and I noticed that he had a photo with him. “Automatically, I assumed she wasn’t here with us and I started tearing up because it was such a beautiful moment but heartbreaking at the same time.” Other diners asked the older gentleman the story behind the photo, with Bashizadah telling The Huffington Post: “We found out that she was his sweetheart, his wife who passed away 5 years ago. “They met at 17 but the war had kept them apart. He had searched for her for 10 years and one day as he was telling his barber the story, the barber calls his daughter in and it ends up being her. They were married instantly and it lasted for 55 years until she passed. “He takes her photo everywhere. On one side of the laminated photo it’s him and her sitting on a couch together and on the back it has a photo of him and her side by side when they were young. Goes to show you true love does exist.” This is adorable, and also incredibly heart breaking. Proof that true love never dies.
