[b]A great-grandfather who was married to his wife for 91 years after an arranged marriage in 1925 has died at the age of 110. Karam Chand, from Bradford, West Yorkshire, died of natural causes on Tuesday last week, six weeks before his 111th birthday.

Last year, he and his wife Katari - who is 103 - celebrated their 90th wedding anniversary.
The pair had got married in a Sikh ceremony in 1925 after meeting in India as teenagers.
They claimed their marriage was a world record, although it was never officially recognised in the Guinness World Records.
Their son Paul said his father's death had been unexpected.
'He was not really poorly or anything like that,' he said. 'We just took him to hospital and he sadly passed away. 'We had already started planning for his birthday which was only weeks away.'It is very sad but we all just have to come to terms with what has happened and concentrate on looking after my mother.'[/b]
