Two residents of a Dyersburg, Tennessee assisted living center plan to marry on Sunday, more than 60 years after they first met.
60年后,來自田納西州戴爾斯堡的兩位老人再度相聚,周日在養(yǎng)老中心組織下喜結(jié)連理。
Peggy Schuster and the Rev. Henry Freund were college sweethearts in the early 1950s. Freund said the couple often sat together in class at Rhodes College in Memphis and frequently dated. But they eventually went their separate ways and married other people.
上世紀(jì)中期,佩吉·舒斯特和牧師亨利·弗洛因德曾是一對校園戀人。弗洛因德說,在孟菲斯的羅德學(xué)院讀書時(shí),他倆經(jīng)常約會,上課也總是坐在一起。可后來他們還是分了手,各自成了家。
'Romance was in the air, but a long road lay ahead of these two young people,' Freund told the Star Gazette . 'It was not the time for them to get together, and so, they went in different directions.'
“空氣里都是浪漫的因子,但年輕的我們眼前的路還很長?!备ヂ逡虻赂嬖V《明星憲報(bào)》說,“當(dāng)時(shí)我們并不適合在一起,所以各自選擇了不同的旅程。”
While attending a church meeting in Memphis in 2001, Freund learned that Schuster had been widowed. Freund, who had lost his wife, wrote his college sweetheart to offer sympathy. A decade later, Schuster gave Freund her email address and the couple, both in their 80s, began corresponding.
但是,2001年在孟菲斯一次教會集會上,弗洛因德獲知當(dāng)年的戀人舒斯特已寡居多年。當(dāng)時(shí)弗洛因德自己也失去了老伴兒。于是他寫信給曾經(jīng)的戀人傾訴傷情。10年后,舒斯特告訴了弗洛因德自己的郵箱地址。就此兩位八旬老人又有了聯(lián)系。
Freund said a spark that had survived for more than 60 years 'burst into flames'. He added: 'Renewal took shape as Cupid's arrow zeroed in on the couple (and they) decided they would spend the remainder of their days as husband and wife.'
弗洛因德說,60年的感情又“燃起了火花”。他還說:“新的感情恰似丘比特之箭,射中我們二人。我們決定結(jié)為夫妻,攜手共度余年?!?/div>
The two octogenarians will pledge their vows under the pavilion at Canterbury Place on Sunday, May 13.
在上個(gè)周日(5月13日),這兩位八旬老人在坎特伯雷的一處涼亭里宣誓結(jié)為夫妻。
