"So today, I took the kids to the pool and we stopped for ice cream on the way home," he wrote in his Facebook post.
"When I got my ice cream and pulled out, I realized that this elderly man beside me was sitting outside his car door, spoon feeding his wife ice cream who also looked in her late eighties.
"He draped a towel over her and slowly fed his bride in the 98 degree temperature."
Pastor Kelley called the act a "beautiful display of love."
