..however altho' they were still relatively young seniors they both had serious underlying existing conditions...and despite having shielded this whole last 18 months and both being vaccinated, contracted C-19 and then died on the same day. The story brought a lump to my throat to be honest...
May Cropley, 71, from Fife, Scotland, had been diagnosed with cervical cancer and an autoimmune condition called Good's syndrome, while her 73-year-old husband John (both pictured left) suffered from vasculitis - inflammation of the blood vessels - affecting his lungs. The couple (top and bottom right), who were both double vaccinated, ran a business together and were committed Christians who served in ministry together. They contracted coronavirus around the same time last month, staying in a shared room at Ninewells Hospital in Dundee.
When John died in front of May, she made the decision to refuse her treatment. Singing Amazing Grace 12 hours after her husband passed away, May also died. They were laid to rest together on Thursday last week at Upper Largo Cemetery. May's cousin, Janet McKay, paid tribute to the couple who celebrated their golden wedding anniversary earlier this year, saying: 'John was so funny. He had a wicked sense of humour. And May was so kind.'
