When we encounter divine experiences we are left speechless. That is the case in the life of Robert and Hayat Chamoun. Together, they had a true love story in life and death. They met and were married in Beruit, Lebanon and celebrated 53 wonderful years. Robert and Hayat passed away within hours of each other on June 11, 2017. Robert lived in Broumana, Lebanon while Hayat lived thousands of miles away from him in DeKalb, Illinois. Hayat means "life" in Arabic. She was the life in Robert's heart. Their love for each other was evident in every moment of their relationship. They were deeply connected here on earth and would end up being lifetime soulmates. In the end, they must have known of their destiny to take this journey into eternal life together.
I Corinthians 13:13 "There are in the end three things that last: Faith, Hope, and Love, and the greatest of these is Love.
