Jackliked Phyllis from the moment he met her, describing in his diary, "Very nice evening. Dancedwith [a] very nice girl. Hope I meet her again." A mere 16 months after that first encounter,the two were married. They lived in Kent, England for over half a century. Eventually Phyllis'sdementia took a deep hold on her life and it was too much for Jack to handle on his own. Shehad to move into a nursing home.
当他还是小孩的时候他就有写日记的习惯并且他一生都保持着这种习惯。当1941年十月杰克跟菲利斯相遇的时候，日记本里就记录下了他们的浪漫情缘。杰克在和菲利斯相遇的那一刻就爱上了她，日记本中这样描绘道："多美好的一个晚上啊，和一个非常好的姑娘跳了舞。希望我能再次遇见她。"离他们第一次见面仅仅才16个月，他们俩就结婚了。他们在英格兰的肯特郡度过了大半生。最后菲利斯的老年痴呆严重影响了她的正常生活，杰克已经不能独自应付，她不得不被送到私人疗养院。

Through everything, Phyllis hasn'tforgotten how much she loves Jack. She's always overjoyed when he arrives to see her. Thetwo have now been married for 70 years.
这并不能阻止杰克。他每天都去看她。他念日记给她听。他让她想起了他们的家还有照片里的宠物。沧海桑田后，菲利斯还是没有忘记她和杰克之间刻骨铭心的爱恋。当他来看她时，她就会迸发出异样的神采。到目前为止他们已经结婚70年了。
