Sara Verkuilen was working at Hair Cuttery in Round Lake Beach, Illinois last winter when an older couple walked in for a haircut. “I don’t think I had ever done their hair before,” Verkuilen told Upworthy. “They were walk-ins.”

The man and his wife were “just really cute together,” she recalled. “He was so sweet with her and obviously very in love.”
