An old married couple from California named Alexander and Jeanette Toczko recently died within a day of each other while hugging each other tightly. They were married for 75 years, and their love for each other never faded away. Their daughter Aimee Toczko-Cushman captured the touching moment of their last embrace.

Alexander and Jeanette were a couple when they were 8 and married in 1940. They are now both 95 years old. Recently, Alexander broke his hip and became bedridden, and Jeanette also became sick. To care for them, a hospice provided special beds where they could lie together and hold each other.
