Margaret and Derek Firth, both 91, died in Trafford General Hospital last week - but had been able to see each other in the hospital before they passed away.
The pair, who lived in Partington, were sweethearts since the age of 14.Margaret was originally admitted to Wythenshawe Hospital but later transferred to Trafford.
When Derek was then admitted to Wythenshawe at a later time, he was moved to Trafford to be with his wife after doctors feared she didn't have long to live.
