He was 54. She was just 18.
A 36-year gap stood between them —
but something much greater brought them together.
When Charlie Chaplin proposed to young Oona O’Neill, he said:
“Marry me so I can teach you how to live,
and you can teach me how to die.”
With a smile, Oona replied:
“No, Charlie. I’ll marry you so you can teach me how to grow up and enjoy life,
and I’ll teach you how to stay young — until the very end.”

It was a partnership of hearts.
They spent 34 years in marriage.
Raised eight children.
And despite the age difference — she stayed by his side until his final breath.

the one who helps you grow wiser,
but keeps your soul young, no matter the years.
