A unique kind of love.
True stories from the best romance novels can be found in some relationships. That’s what one couple had. Love without any restrictions. Even after they passed away, they still had much love and respect for one another.
After 65 years of marriage, Jake and Elizabeth Reissig divorced. Right up until she died, they were deeply in love with one another. According to Roger, one of their sons, his father thought his mother was always beautiful and that she always dressed nicely. He described her as being beautiful.
Jake started a custom after Liz passed away that he had started when they first married. Jake used to give his wife a rose every day. Jake would enter his rose garden every day after she died. He would bring a rose cut from the bushes when she was buried in the cemetery. He would then bury it on her gravesite.
He took care of her burial place.
There was a severe drought in Texas in 2015. Jake could not watch the grass grow brown and crunchy on his wife’s grave plot. As a result, he decided to buy a garden hose and water the grass twice daily. Liz’s grave’s surrounding grass was visibly greener than the other serious actions.
A few plots down from his wife’s grave, Jake could not help but notice a woman hunched over next to a grave one day. Jake was trying to comfort her as she sobbed. He discovered that her brother, Joseph Anthony Villasenor, was buried there. In the US Airforce, he served as a soldier. He served his country for 16 years before dying in 2010. His age was just 36. He loved sports, according to his family. He passed away in a car accident on the way to a softball game.
Jake, who was all too familiar with grief, felt the woman’s suffering. For the grieving family, he wanted to do something. He could do little to ease their loss because he was in his 80s. Jake could still help the family out in one way, though.
The family of Villasenor was speechless when they went to their son’s grave the following time. The grass around his grave was noticeably greener than their previous visit. At first, they believed it to be an absolute miracle. They couldn’t understand why the tomb was so much greener since none of them had requested a gardener to take care of it.
The miracle worker and covert caregiver turned out to be Jake. When the Villasenor family eventually caught him in the act, he gave himself away. When they visited their son’s grave, they noticed Jake watering the grass nearby. A lot of hugs were exchanged during the emotional moment. The mother of the deceased soldier was astounded by Jake’s kindness toward a stranger. Jake offered her the hose so she could personally irrigate her son’s grave.
