Last year, 83-year-old Sümbül Topbaş, who wore a wedding dress in a symbolic wedding, was found dead in a bushy area in the Çukurova district of Adana.

83-year-old Sümbül Topbaş, who realized her dream of wearing a wedding dress with a symbolic wedding last year in Adana, was found dead today in a bushy area in the Çukurova district. Sümbül Topbaş, who waited a lifetime for love and never united her life with anyone else after not being able to marry her platonic love Cabbar Gani in her youth, had made headlines last year with a heartwarming event in Adana. Authorities and philanthropists mobilized for Sümbül aunt, who said that her biggest dream was to "wear a wedding dress just once" while staying at the nursing home, and her dream was turned into reality with a symbolic wedding. The joy in Topbaş's eyes as she entered the wedding hall in her white wedding dress, accompanied by drums and zurna, created emotional moments for everyone watching that moment.
