Man, 24, loses 82-year-old wife

[Orrin_73]

An 82-year-old Argentine woman who attracted media attention last month when she married a 24-year-old man has died as a result of heart problems.

Adelfa Volpes was admitted to hospital soon after she and her new husband, Reinaldo Waveqche, returned from their honeymoon in Brazil.

She died in a sanatorium in Santa Fe, the city where the couple were married.
Ms Volpes had rejected criticism over the age difference with the groom, who is the son of one of her best friends.

Their love is said to have blossomed when Mr Waveqche went to live with his future bride after his mother's death, when he was 15.

But the whole marriage gave me creeps. She was like his mother after his own mother died.

11. Not a bad way to go.

Live into your 80ies, marry a young guy, and have a heart-stopping honeymoon.

13. hmm. Sleazy gigolo marries rich old coot and inherits millions

In the immortal words of Tina Turner "Whats love got to do with it?" Here in America we've got Anna Nicole Smith, in Argentina they've got Reinaldo. I guess the truest love is the love of money.

14. Hell, we all lusted after Seniors...

...when I was in high school.

That said, the world would be a better place if we could all find love and not be told that we're too old or too gay.

RIP señorita.
