64年前,一名装饰师写了一封情书,藏在墙纸后面,这是该男子伤心欲绝的遗孀第一次读到这封信。

1960年,肯·佩罗特(Ken Perrott)与未来的妻子瓦尔(Val)订婚后,在德文郡埃克塞特(Exeter)一栋正在装修的房子的墙上写下了这段感人的悼词。

他把这张纸条用纸盖起来,藏了好几年,直到最近房产的现任主人发现了它。

当他们来的时候,他们正在重新装修空房间,把它变成他们第一个孩子的育婴室。

在墙上,他写下了自己的名字和地址,以及瓦尔的名字——当时她的娘家姓是罗斯——而在下面,他画了一颗爱心,上面写着他们的名字和“1961年3月结婚”。

它的签名是“由肯·佩罗特(Ken Perrott)撰写”,日期是1960年8月。

为了寻找墙上提到的人,主人在Facebook页面埃克塞特回忆上发布了一张照片。

肯和瓦尔的孙女看到了这张照片,并把它拿给瓦尔看。1996年,年仅56岁的肯去世,瓦尔失去了她一生的挚爱。

肯在他的职业生涯中一直是一名装饰师,并创立了埃克塞特装饰公司。

这家公司后来更名为Isca装饰公司,由他的儿子Adrian和孙子Lee经营。

1959年,21岁的肯在埃克斯茅斯的皇家舞会上遇到了瓦尔。

这对夫妇的女儿Nicola Perrott说:“我妈妈当时正在和别人约会,但我爸爸让她神魂颠倒。”

“他有点傻,有一辆摩托车,有点大胆。”他们几个月后订婚,并于1961年结婚。

“如果他没有去世,他们可能还在一起。除了和我爸爸,我妈妈从来没有谈过别的恋爱。”

尼古拉说,她妈妈每周打三次高尔夫球,社交生活也很丰富,但她仍然很想念肯。

她补充道:“当我妈妈看到这封未加盖的情书时,她非常激动,哭了起来。她说我爸爸真的很爱她。他们的婚姻非常非常美满,是我和我哥哥的好榜样。

“令人费解的是,这封情书的日期是1960年8月,但上面写着他们在1961年3月结婚。”我们认为他写这封信时知道他们将在第二年结婚。

她从来不知道他写过关于她的东西,但她说,在他们共同居住的房子里,他装修时总是把他们和我们的名字写在墙上。谁知道他还干过多少次?

“在Facebook的帖子上,埃克塞特有很多人都很友好,分享了对我父亲的回忆。这太棒了,给我带来了很多快乐的回忆。”

在发布的评论中,有人写道:“哇,多可爱的故事啊。显然是真爱。我很遗憾你这么年轻就失去了你的父亲但我相信他看到这一幕一定在微笑。

“我为你们感到高兴,你们都能看到这个。想象一下,如果它一直被覆盖着。我认为是宇宙密谋让它被揭露。

另一位网友说:“我从签名上认出了他们。肯和瓦尔是多么英俊的一对,俱乐部里的舞者也是多么出色啊!”
