So the two stayed together until the death of one. In those days couples often lasted a few weeks or pushed it to a few months. A blessing to find true mutual love, as I know from experience. Lost my dear wife a year ago. Love from 1973 to current (I still love her now.)

I'm sorry for your loss.

And their marriage is something to be celebrated. As is yours.

My deepest sympathies for your loss; my wife and I have been together for nearly 30 years now, losing her would break me in half.

“...A blessing to find true mutual love, as I know from experience. Lost my dear wife a year ago. Love from 1973 to...now”

That is great to read. I had a marriage fail and that is not the way things should be. I’ve been with my wife now for two decades. I pray my children find marriages that beat-the-odds and last till the “death of one”.

You come from the same place I come from. Who would have thought that any of those people would get married and remain married for 54 years? They done good, IMHO.
