Nebraska groom dies one hour after his wedding
A groom in Nebraska died an hour after his wedding ceremony began.
According to an NBC news report, Toraze and Johnnie Mae Davis walked down the aisle last Monday and promised the rest of their lives to each other.
The newly married couple reportedly went outside to take wedding pictures. Shortly after, the groom fell, and an ambulance responded, turning what was supposed to be a happy occasion into a tragedy.
The groom reportedly died from a blood clot.
The “happiest day of their lives turned into a day of tragedy,” Monica Miller, the bride’s supervisor who was at the wedding, told NBC News.
Friends are now trying to support the bride.
An online fundraiser to help with funeral expenses and the couple’s children had raised more than $12,000 as of Friday evening.
“She went from planning a wedding to now planning a funeral,” said Miller, who is organising the fundraiser.
