The man is 52 AND grew up during the depression. This is either a compilation or the GOP can not add.
Maybe a better public educational system needs to be worked into the GOP platform.

I see "grew up in the Depression" and I see "a father of 52...". I do not see both in the same sentence. Did I miss something?

Mark, the writer said he's been married for 52 years.

What I see is "a husband of 52 years" which would make him probably about 70

No, he has been married 52+years. Go back and read with more comprehension.

The man is 52 AND grew up during the depression. This is either a compilation or the GOP can not add. From the article:
...is a loving husband of some 52 plus years...
He could easily be in his 70's or 80's depending on when he got married.

If you read again you will see he has been married for 52 years. That puts him into his mid to late 70's. Though he would have been born after the crash of 1929 and would not remember many of the early years of the depression he would remember much of the economic hardship that the world did not pull out of until WWII.
My conservative education serves me just fine. What is wrong with your educatoin?

Uh, I think he said a "husband" of 52 years, not 52 years of age.

This man has been a husband for fifty two years, give him 22 years prior to marriage ... he is 74.

I guess you went to a government school run by democrats since you cannot read and or comprehend what you read. Look at it again idiot and you will see that what it really says is "... first and foremost, is a loving husband of some 52 plus years."
He has been married for 52 years, not 52 years old. Go read the Huffingtonpost.

Maybe you need to work on your reading comprehension skills Mark. While you're at it why don't you see about getting a refund on that defective public school education.
