And secondly, it calmed us. And if we had a disagreement or something before, it was gone by the time we went to sleep.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s a magic musical elixir that their son Doug says happens without fail.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m not aware that they ever miss it,&#8221; Doug said.<\/p>\n<p>Last month, Marilyn fell and broke her hip. And sure enough, her nightly serenade continued without skipping a beat.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;When you sing to your spouse, she realizes that you really care enough to go out of your way \u2014 rather than just say, &#8216;Goodnight, honey,&#8217; Don explains. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>This Valentine&#8217;s weekend, couples will be searching for just the right words to show their love. But for Don and Marilyn there&#8217;s nothing to say that can&#8217;t be sung.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- data-recirc-source=\"queryly\" --><\/p>\n<aside class=\"component list recirculation component--type-recirculation \"\/><!-- tags --><\/p>\n<div class=\"content-author\">\n      <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/team\/steve-hartman\/\" class=\"content-author__name\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">Steve Hartman<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"content-author__bio\">\n<div class=\"content-author__image\">\n            <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/team\/steve-hartman\/\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\"><br \/>\n              <span class=\"img \"><img alt=\"Steve Hartman \" height=\"80\" width=\"80\" class=\" lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets3.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2024\/07\/23\/4a01baf7-77c8-43f0-a87b-aaa2e0cf611c\/thumbnail\/80x80\/aefa6e64b1bdf9ef2fa605c6c0b25f52\/headshot-hartman-2024.jpg?v=f303dc12868a012283443d8b9123e5fe 1x, https:\/\/assets3.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2024\/07\/23\/4a01baf7-77c8-43f0-a87b-aaa2e0cf611c\/thumbnail\/160x160\/cc1b2cd476d9511aab4bf1ccbb957961\/headshot-hartman-2024.jpg?v=f303dc12868a012283443d8b9123e5fe 2x\"\/><\/span><br \/>\n            <\/a>\n          <\/div>\n<div class=\"content-author__full-information\">\n<p class=\"content-author__text\">Steve Hartman is a CBS News correspondent.
