70 years married.

[Imperial One]

On Valentines Day my parents had been married for 70 years. They are 92 and 93 years old now.

For me to make it to that anniversary I'd have to make it to 103 (so I am not counting on it). Here's a couple photos, the before and after.

Thanks for that!!! There's hope for the Wife and I, married at 18 and 20 !

They are blessed, and please relay congratulations to a lovely couple !

Here they are in 1950. Mom was 20 then.

I think dad said the car was a '48 Plymouth (even a Mopar guy back then).

(Edit: popular consensus is that this is a '39 Plymouth)

Outstanding! Wish your folks happy anniversary for me

Thats not a '48. I am thinking more like a '39 or '40 model.

Cherish then while they are here. We where preparing for 50. The wife was 16 and I nineteen. Sad to say we will not make it.

Planning a trip to celebrate in Hawaii ( never been before )

Congratulations to your parents for being married for 70 years. That is quite a milestone. I have to say, your mom was quite a "Hottie" when she got married. My wife and I will be celebrating 52 years this summer. Just 18 more to go! I would be 93, and my wife 92. Doable; just look both ways before crossing the street in our walkers!

Thats Awesome

 

[Cranky]

Pretty cool!! Does being married for 35+ years to two different women count for anything?? Naw.....and I think the Plymouth is a 38.

 

[Dave6T4]

I know it is a '39 Plymouth. That is what is in my own parent's wedding pictures also.

What a milestone! I have known only one couple in my circle who made it that far, friends of my family from early on, who made it 72 years, Blossum passed at 92, Gil at 99. Wonderful people, sometimes the good don't die young. You have been blessed to have them so long.
