The obituary they wrote during Aaron’s hospice care revealing his true identity as Spider-Man touched the nation. A few months later, Aaron died in Nora’s arms. In the period that followed, Nora and Aaron packed fifty years of marriage into the three they got, spending their time on what really matters: Buffy the Vampire Slayer, each other, and Beyoncé. They got engaged on Aaron’s hospital bed and had a baby boy while he was on chemo. When Aaron was diagnosed with a rare form of brain cancer, they refused to let it limit their love. Twenty-seven-year-old Nora McInerny Purmort bounced from boyfriend to dopey “boyfriend” until she met Aaron-a charismatic art director and comic-book nerd who once made Nora laugh so hard she pulled a muscle. “Thank you for the perfect blend of nostalgia-drenched humor, wit, and heartbreak, Nora.” - Mandy Moore
