Creepy or Romantic?

Entertainer Jack Benny's will specified that one red rose be delivered to his wife every day until her death.

Also, fun: Benny's widow claimed his signature gesture of holding one hand to his face came about from his attempts to conceal scratches she gave him due to his philandering.

Here's the two love birds:
