Nothing like a Valentine’s Day marriage at your local 24-hour-diner to make you feel all warm and sappy inside. Some fun little excerpts:
The restaurant is also a safe haven for Dot (Morrow), who’s eaten breakfast and dinner there every day the past 12 years [Jake Note: That can’t be cheap] — ever since her first husband died. Denny’s staff call her a dear friend who quells the restaurant’s grouchy customers and imbues it with cheer.

And when Dot’s doctor told her she needed to lose weight because her health was in jeopardy, Denny’s staff cheered her on every step of the way.

The couple will now share Dot’s Tumalo home, where they like to watch WWF wrestling matches every Monday night.
Isn’t that sweet? Full Story.
