Erin Miller tells the Tribune-Democrat of Johnstown that her grandfather, James Landis, was with his 87-year-old wife, Marjorie, when she died Monday at the Laurelwood Care Center near Johnstown.
Miller says, "The last thing he said to her was, 'It's OK. I love you. We had many good years together. I will see you real soon.'"
Less than an hour-and-a-half later, 89-year-old James Landis died of a heart attack.
Miller says she thinks her grandfather "died of a broken heart. I don't think they could have lived apart from each other."
The couple's funeral was set for Thursday morning at the Westmont Presbyterian Church.
