It's a love story that lasted a lifetime, and beyond.
Don and Maxine Simpson, of Bakersfield, Calif., were married 62 years and died within four hours of each other.
"It's absolutely beautiful, and the story is beautiful," Melissa Sloan, the couple's granddaughter, told ABC affiliate KERO-TV.
The couple met at a bowling alley and were inseparable ever since. They raised two boys, traveled the world, and became well-respected members of Bakersfield.
Two weeks ago Don Simpson was taken to the hospital for a broken hip, but his health quickly started to deteriorate. His family brought him home to be with his wife, who had been battling cancer for several years.
