The Chicago Sun-Times claims Isaac and Teresa Vatkin, of Skokie, Illinois, recently died minutes apart while holding hands. The couple was married for 69 years. Teresa died first in the couple’s shared hospital room before Isaac went 40 minutes later.
Their son Daniel tells the paper. “The moment he felt we removed her hand from his, he was able to say ‘OK, I’m done protecting her. I can go and rest as well’. The ultimate in chivalry — so he could go to heaven and open the door for her.”
Their other son Leo says; “His hand was on top of hers. He was trying to breathe. And then, as they wheeled her out, his hand was hanging over the bed. I turned around, and he wasn’t breathing anymore.”
Teresa was 89 while Isaac was 91.
