New Haven Register: 1st-time bride, 85, of Milford, set to wed a widower from Wallingford

“I love his compassionate heart, his generosity, his showing of himself as a person of dignity and grace,” [Ruth] Franz said, her fingers intertwined with Jones and her head resting on his shoulder.

Swooning when Jones explained again how the moon’s orbit affects the tides, Franz gushed: “And he has such an amazing ability to remember stuff.”

[Henry] Jones, who lost his wife a year ago after some 60 years of marriage, appears just as agog and in love as his bride.

“I love her dearly because of the way she thinks and the way she loves the Lord. We’re singing off the same sheet and that’s all you could want in life,” Jones said. “She’s the most wonderful woman in the world … and she’s beautiful ”” I’ve always thought she was beautiful.”

Wonderful stuff–read it all and enjoy the video if you have time.
