Longtime Couple Passes 15 Hours Apart—God Called Them ‘In a Beautiful Way’

(ChurchLeaders) After a 73-year marriage based on love and faith, Wanda and Jim Wold of Garner, Iowa, died hours apart last week. Family members say they’re comforted by knowing that God had a hand in the couple’s July 20 deaths.

Wanda Wold, 96, died early in the morning at Concord Care Center, where she had previously worked as a registered nurse. Hours later, Jim Wold, 94, died in the same nursing home, soon after learning that his wife had passed away.
