Bride dies during marriage's first dance

DAVIE, Fla. - Kim Sjostrom wanted a real-life version of the film "My Big Fat Greek Wedding," which played in the background as friends fixed her hair and makeup before her own marriage ceremony. But less than an hour after she and Teddy Efkarpides were wed, Sjostrom crumpled in her husband's arms during a Greek song that means "Love Me." At 36, Sjostrom was dead from heart disease. During the couple's first dance, Sjostrom complained of being lightheaded. Efkarpides thought his wife, a diabetic, needed sugar, but she collapsed. Wedding guests, paramedics and doctors at a nearby hospital were unable to revive her. He consoles himself by reading a list of "101 Reasons Why I Love You" that Sjostrom gave him their first Christmas together. "Number 1. You make me smile." No. 98 is especially difficult: "You're the one I want to grow old with." |
Really sad. I think I'd become even more jaded than I am :(

but then again how many guys can say they never had a argument with their wife the entire time they were married :oh: i only keed, it is really sad that that would happen |
I feel bad for the guy. Makes me think of a song
Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight It must have been something you said I just died in your arms tonight I keep looking for something I can't get Broken hearts, they're all around me And I don't see an easier way, to get out of this Her diary sits by the bedside table The curtains are closed, the cat's in the cradle Who would have thought that a boy like me could come to this Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight It must have been something you said I just died in your arms tonight Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight It must have been some kind of kiss I should have walked away I should have walked away Is there any just cause for feeling like this? On the surface I'm a name on a list I try to be discreet, but then blow it again I've lost and found it's my final mistake She's loving by proxy, no give and all take 'Cause I've been thrilled to fantasy, one too many times Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight It must have been something you said I just died in your arms tonight Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight It must have been some kind of kiss I should have walked away I should have walked away It was a long hot night, she made it easy She made it feel right But now it's over, the moment has gone I followed my hands to my head, I know I was wrong Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight It must have been something you said I just died in your arms tonight Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight It must have been some kind of kiss I should have walked away I should have walked away |
that must be absolutely devastating :(

downer :(
