Very very sad story

On Monday evening, I saw the local TV news where--due to the very cold weather--they made a feature story of a homeless man and his lady, who refused to go to a shelter because of bad experiences in the past. He had been on the streets for I think nine years, the lady for a shorter--but still significant--time. They said they had each other to keep them warm...

Last night, he was dead from hypothermia. Aged forty-nine.

Here's the article: http://www.newsday.com/news/local/longisland/ny-licold0213,0,4668169.story
