Texas couple met on 9/11, after their plane was diverted to Canada
Fox News
While 9/11 ripped so many loved ones apart, it brought Houston couple Nick and Diane Marson together in the strangest way.
"I noticed the flight attendant was extremely nervous and almost visibly shaking and I thought she’s really not cut out for this job," Nick, 73, told the station. "Little did I realize she was probably walking around the plane looking for other people that might have been terrorists." Theirs and nearly 40 other flights were diverted to New Foundland where they stayed for several days, along with thousands of others, waiting for news and a chance to go home. "They just opened their pantries, their refrigerators, and made food for almost 7,000 people," Diane, 80, who has now been married to her husband for 19 years, said of the welcoming Canadians.More Related News
