“She was so concerned about finding the right one and he was so unbelievably helpful.

“She was having a ‘girl’ moment, in a panic struggling to find the right one. He calmed her down, helped her find her color and kissed her on the forehead.

“It was such a simple way to show how big his love was for her. A perfect reminder that our bodies grow old but our love doesn’t have to. #LoveWhatMatters.”

Dottie-John Billock said: “I recently had surgery and couldn’t raise my arm to do my hair, but no worries, my wonderful hubby of 39 years took his time to do my hair exactly like I do it, which is no easy feat! Honestly, the back looked way better when he did it! Such love and patience! I’m a very lucky girl!”
