A beloved husband and wife were tragically killed after they stepped into the path of an oncoming car whilst walking arm in arm, an inquest heard.
John Mann, 91, who known fondly by family as 'Jackie,' and his wife Joan, 89, died within two weeks of each other following the horror collision in Wigan on October 18 last year.
The couple had been on their way to their local church just yards away from their house on Swan Lane in Hindley Green when they both stepped into the road 'linking arms.'
