He was a dashing D-Day veteran and she a blushing bride in white when they vowed to love each other in sickness and in health. 彼时，他是一名二战的退伍兵，而她是一位美丽害羞的少女，他们一起许下承诺：无论生老病死、相互陪伴一生。 For 65 years Harry and Mavis Stevenson stayed true to that promise, and when she died just 48 hours after her 89th birthday, he could not bear to be without her. 此时，他们两人始终遵守承诺、不离不弃，已经携手走过了65年。她过完89岁生日的48个小时之后离开了人世，而他怎能忍受没有她的生活呢？ Yesterday their nephew Stephen Cresswell told how 88-year-old Mr Stevenson died within minutes of his beloved wife after they spent their last night holding hands while they slept in a care home. 两人的侄子斯蒂芬·克雷斯韦尔向我们讲述了斯蒂文森夫妇哈利·斯蒂文森和梅维斯·斯蒂文森之间平凡而感人的爱情，以及斯蒂文森先生在妻子离世后随她而去时的情景。 He said: ‘The staff told Harry very gently that she had passed away and said he shed two or three tears. Then they tended to Mavis and the next time they looked over at Harry, he was gone. 斯蒂芬说：“当护理中心的工作人员非常婉转地告诉哈利‘梅维斯去世了’的时候他只掉了几滴眼泪。之后当工作人员就去料理梅维斯的后事，而当他们再次看到哈利的时候，他也已经离开这个世界了。” |
