Ernestine Murphy, 79, found love again after decades of being single. Just six weeks after meeting Moses Cusse at their local church, the couple tied the knot in a heartwarming ceremony.
Ernestine, who lost her first husband at a young age, described her life as quiet and routine. Meeting Moses, a 79-year-old carpenter and grandfather, brought a spark back into her life.
“When she told me she met someone new, I was shocked,” shared Michelle, Ernestine’s granddaughter who considers her a mother figure. “She barely leaves the house! But to see her bounce back with such joy is amazing.”
Despite the quick courtship, Michelle is thrilled for Ernestine. “Life is not guaranteed,” she says. “Why shouldn’t I support her happiness?”
The wedding, held at Alpha and Omega church in Richmond, Virginia, was filled with love and laughter. Michelle, who documented the special day on TikTok, described the couple as “adorable” and “perfect gentlemen.”
Ernestine’s story is a heartwarming reminder that love can blossom at any age.
