Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lacey_Davenport) "[Lacey] and Dick Davenport, her husband, were first introduced as attendees at a Walden College Alumni Reunion in 1974. The two had been “living in sin” for decades, and finally decided to get married." … “Dick Davenport, a bird watcher, died in 1986 due to a massive coronary brought on by observing the possibly extinct Bachman’s warbler, managing to snap a photo before collapsing. This death scene has been noted as a particularly memorable one.” I believe that Jeremy was a friend of the couple, and when Dick died, Jeremy felt that it was sort of his duty to replace him.
