A couple who were married for 72 years died one hour apart last October in the hospital as they held hands.
On the day she graduated from high school, Norma Stock promised to spend forever with Gordon Yeager. The couple got married on May 26, 1939 in State Center.
“They’re very old-fashioned. They believed in marriage til death do you part,” said son Dennis Yeager.
Norma didn’t really want the distance, and family said she hardly left Gordon’s side for 72 years.
