How wonderful!
50 plus years. Amazing.
You're right! I can only hope to have that long...
Wow. That's all I can say.
When I saw the word love and a picture of a cake, I thought you had read my mind, but your post was better than just eating cake.
Dang thats a long time
Wow! 50+ years, that's awesome.
I think most people never find that kind of love.
I can't imagine. Wonderful that they were able to get married - it's kind of a reward for all those years of dedication to eachother.
To be lovers for that many years is what impresses me.
