CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — A North Carolina couple who lost their two sons in a wreck in 2015 has announced they are expecting twins.

The Charlotte Observer reported (http://bit.ly/2kjFDwm ) that Hadley and Gentry Eddings announced on Facebook that their twins are expected this summer.

Gentry Eddings is a campus pastor and Hadley Eddings teaches 4-year-olds at Charlotte's Forest Hill church. Their 2-year-old Dobbs Eddings died in the wreck, and Reed Eddings died two days later after being delivered at 38 weeks by emergency cesarean.

Twenty-eight-year-old Matthew Deans of Wilmington has been sentenced to 1 to 3 years in prison after pleading guilty to involuntary manslaughter in the wreck.
