Irving Berlin's first wife died after she contracted pneumonia and typhoid fever on theri honeymoon. The song "When I lost you" was inspired by her death. Irving Berlin "Berlin was married twice. His first wife, singer Dorothy Goetz, sister of songwriter E. Ray Goetz, contracted pneumonia and typhoid fever on their honeymoon to Cuba, and died five months after their wedding in 1912 at the age of twenty. Her death inspired Berlin's song "When I Lost You", which became one of his earliest hits."
