94-year-old widow Clara Gantt accepted her husband's remains Friday morning when Sgt. First Class Joseph Gantt's body was returned to Los Angeles, this is the ultimate love story.

The love affair started with a meeting nearly 70 years ago aboard a train headed to Southern California and ended with a very emotional reunion during an honor guard ceremony.

Mrs. Gantt's husband always said if something happened to him, she should remarry and carry on with her life.  She never remarried and loves him to this day.

Gantt was taken prisoner during the Korean War.  He died as a prisoner of war in March 1951.

Every person in love, or planning to be, should watch this very emotional video and take note of this text book love story.
