Husband in Iowa decorates entire street for wife’s Christmas joy

A man in Iowa has decorated his entire street to honour his wife, who loves Christmas.

His wife, Joan, was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s four years ago and since then, her husband, a marine veteran, has focused on creating meaningful memories for her.

“If it wasn’t for my wife, I don’t know if I would’ve done it,” Mr Reichart told the BBC’s US news partner, CBS. “But she wanted Christmas, so I’d give it to her. I’d do anything to make her happy.”
