It is a coincidence they died on the same day; both John Adams and Thomas Jefferson were very old when they died. The cause of death for each of them is unknown but certainly can be attributed to old age.

July 4, 1826, they worked together, fought against each other, but always had the same dream......... that they died on the same day was amazing, that they died on Independence Day....... I think the Lord had something to do with that! Or a higher power..... however you want to look at it!
