And by all accounts it was a good marriage, lasting more than 50 years until Alf Wight died in 1995. She was very good for him in that, after multiple rejections of his book submissions, she goaded him into digging them out of a drawer and sending them in "just one more time" until finally - to the benefit of us all - it was accepted for publication. Love the storybook tales where the wife will not let her husband give up on himself.
