Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, widower Bud Caldwell had spent nearly 56 years with his beloved wife, Elizabeth “Betty” Caldwell. Betty’s widowed husband was so loyal to his late wife’s memory that he bought and dedicated a bench to her name when she passed away in 2013.
Caldwell drove to Lakeside Park every single day, no matter how bad the weather was, to talk with his wife and leave tokens of his enduring love. That was until one day, when Caldwell found himself unable to reach Betty’s bench.
