Joe and Ann met in 1964. Joe, a young soldier, and Ann, a nurse, happened to sit beside each other on a bench near her hospital. They struck up a conversation, and Joe felt transported from the chaos of war. The next day, before Joe deployed, they promised to meet on that same bench, no matter where life took them. When Joe returned, he found Ann waiting, and they went on to share a life filled with family and enduring love.
Upon retiring at 55, they made it a tradition to sit on that bench every day, rain or shine. Locals began calling it “Joe and Ann’s Bench,” and young couples admired their bond. Seasons changed, but their bench witnessed each chapter of their lives.
Now, at 100, they still meet there daily. Joe helps Ann with her coat, and she straightens his hat. In their quiet moments, they feel the love they’ve built. When asked about their lasting love, Joe says, “Just find someone you want to sit with, forever,” and Ann’s smile shows she knows he means it.
Woman hears doorbell ring at 4 am — sees it’s her neighbor dog paying her a visit
Even if they don’t always choose the best times to visit, it’s always pleasant when a dog does so.
One woman recently received a surprise when her doorbell rang at four in the morning and she saw a very special visitor.
An American bully named Bruce rang her doorbell late one night, and the doorbell camera caught it all in a now-viral video posted on TikTok by user @omg_its_char. The homeowner’s neighbor’s dog is named Bruce.
The pet seems to be eager to be let inside and has demonstrated outstanding usage of the doorbell by even bopping his head at the chime. Bruce barks a second later, seemingly to announce, “Hey, I’m out here!”
Check out the video below:
The homeowner welcomed Bruce in for a visit, and although not everyone enjoys hearing the doorbell ring at this early hour, the dog settled in.
She posted an update saying, “This wasn’t the first time he stopped by to say hello. I got out of bed and let him inside.” “He used one of my cat’s toys to help himself while he had the zoomies for almost ten minutes before deciding to settle down on my couch.”
Bruce was allowed to spend the night with her after she called the dog’s owners and they didn’t respond. The following morning, the dog was picked up by the neighbors.
With over 24.6 million views in just two days, the video has gone viral. Many others said that if Bruce rang their bell, they would allow him in as well.
One response says, “That would be the only welcomed guest in my house.”
Another remark reads, “Oh my gosh, if you don’t let him in right now, I’m coming over immediately and keeping him.”
Another person wrote, “He wanted to have a sleep over.”
What a funny video and what a smart dog! Would you please let this cute puppy come visit you inside? If so, please tell your friends about this story.
