Are You Gonna Kiss Me or Not? – Les and Helen Brown’s Story

This is where YOU tell us YOUR love stories! You know, like how you met your honey… how you found true love after all this time… or maybe even how you finally got back together with the one that got away. You get the idea – whatever your “happily ever after” is, we wanna hear it!!!

 

Each week you guys send in these crazy love stories – some that happen to you, and some like this next one that came out of The Huffington Post:

Les and Helen Brown were both born on New Year’s Eve in 1918 and were high school sweethearts. They eloped at the age of 18 against their parents’ wishes. Eventually, the couple moved to Long Beach, California where Les was a photographer and Helen sold real estate. Their children say they spent everyday together for 75 years and they really were the best of friends. It was a real love story and if two people ever were “made for each other,” it was them.

Sadly, at 94 years old and shortly after having celebrated their 75th wedding anniversary, both Les and Helen’s health started to decline.  Their children say their mother didn’t want to see her husband die, and he didn’t want live without her…and, when Helen passed on July 16, 2013, Les went with her, the very next day!

That’s a life and love well lived it sounds like to me. Isn’t that good? It’s about all you ask for at the end of the day…
