Josephine Daniels Doolittle

Doolittle died at age 97 and was buried at Arlington Cemetery next to Josephine, his wife of 71 years. "The best thing I ever did was to convince Joe that she should marry me; the luckiest thing that ever happened to me was when she finally did. That's why, whenever I'm asked, I say that I would never want to relive my life. I could never be so lucky again."
