Girl Shares Her Grandfather’s Act Of Love To His Wife Of 60 Years And It Will Make Anyone Believe In Love Again
The elderly often teach us important life lessons. All of the wisdom they collected through life can help us see things that are truly important in life, such as showing affection to our loved ones. Some of the younger people often take their closest ones, including their significant others for granted, and they have a lot to learn from some of those who have managed to keep their relationship strong and fulfilling for decades.

Recently, one such brilliant example went viral. A granddaughter shared a lovely story about the way her grandpa shows affection to his wife after being married for 60 years.

In her Facebook post, Alesha Nemechek wrote how her 85-year-old Papa Joe still remembers to show love, affection, and attention to his wife by doing little things for her. Despite his memory not being as good as in his younger years, Joe still remembers all of his wife’s favorite things and tries to surprise her with them.
Nemechek concludes her post by encouraging people to take this story as a lesson on how it is important to stay ‘intentional’.

Share on FacebookTime goes so fast, I literally cry thinking about how fast time has went by for me and the love of my life, we are all in this same boat, be thankful if you still have each other, everyday I try to not take things for-granted.....I love this story so much, this whole family is beautiful.
Thoughtful granddaughter to honor her grandparents so. Kindness runs in the family.
What a beautiful relationship, marriage, and friendship. An inspiration to us all. My parents taught me by example that a happy marriage is attainable. It always gave me hope. I think one of the things people tend to forget is: It doesn't just happen because you are in love/lust, you have to work at the relationship. These two folks have certainly achieved this and more. Bless you both.
People like these, and my parents (married for 55 years), are getting hard to find as they pass away. There are those who still honor the old ways and they will always have my respect.
Nonsense. Good people are & have always been there to find. Horrible people too. We're not living in endtimes, that's just an excuse not to bother.

I'll never forget her pleading or that he said that the weekly visits to the doctor and her physical retraining was enough.. Living out in the rural and her not being able to walk well, on top og her license to drive being taken for a year because of the clot. Others driving her was the only way for her to get around. Two weeks in the hospital, almost dying and he couldn't be bothered to drive her on a damn trip..
Hope you're okay, but don't discredit other people's relationships.

Saying "People throw away their relationship so easily" just tells a lot about you and nothing about the people that got seperated or divorced.
