High school sweethearts and husband and wife of 75 years Helen andLes Brown of Long Beach, California, died within one day of each other earlier this month. They were both 94.
Les had been long suffering from Parkinson’s disease and Helen was dealing with stomach cancer. Helen was expected to live a few more months, but died on July 16. Les, who had recently fallen into a coma and was not aware of his wife’s passing, died the next day.
While Les and Helen’s deaths coming in such quick succession may be difficult on their family, their synchronicity was nothing new - See more at: http://www.photoax.net/2013/08/helen-andles-brown.html#sthash.HwSDxkuL.dpuf
