Twin sisters, 97, fall and freeze to death together

BARRINGTON, RHODE ISLAND - Ninety-seven-year-old twins Jean Young Haley and Martha Young Williams left the world as they entered it: together.

The two died over the weekend in freezing temperatures after both fell and became stranded outside Haley's home following an evening out. Police said they believe Williams fell as she walked to her car on Friday evening, and Haley fell as she tried to get inside to call for help.

Williams' daughter, Susan, said on Monday that she takes solace in knowing the twins entered and left life together, with one trying to save the other. She said it would have been incredibly hard for either sister to live without the other.
