An elderly couple, who were married for 63 years, died in a house fire after the granddad told dispatchers that he would 'not leave my wife.' Kenneth and Phyllis Zerr, both 84, of New Melle, , passed away around 1am on Thursday from a suspected electrical fire in their Tall Cedar Court home, where they lived for 18 years. New Melle Fire Protection District said the fire started on the bottom floor of the home, eventually working its way upstairs to the two bedrooms.
