GEO Amazing and Interesting, 99 year-old man marries for the first time



99 year-old man marries for the first time

NEW YORK: A 99-year old man has ended his lifelong holdout
and tied the knot for the very first time.

Gilbert Herrick met 86-year-old Virginia Hartman, a widow who
raised five children, while living at Monroe Community Hospital
near Rochester, New York. Something that hadn't clicked for 98
years finally did.

They tied the knot June 6. Her five children, grandchildren and
great grandchildren helped plan. Both are confined to wheelchairs,
making their first dance as a couple tricky. They waited for the floor
to clear, said Herrick.
