“We should be going through wedding photos, but instead I have to pick out clothes to bury my husband in,” Brenda Flint wrote on Facebook, to announce the death of her husband Jake Flint who died at the age of 37 soon after their wedding.

Jake and Brenda married in his hometown of Oklahoma, where the ceremony was rainy but still beautiful according to friends who attended. Brenda had also uploaded a few wedding photos and a video of them dancing to social media.
