I delivered the Detroit Free Press in Junior High. I would look at articles as I folded them. There was an article of a couple who were married for 84 years in an edition. Probably about 1964 or 1965. 83 years is a tremendous mile stone.

My parents have been married for 69 years. 70th anniversary will be May 2026. Dad is 92 and Mom is 88. Bought their house in 1958 for $12,000 and still live in the same house that they paid off around 1972. Current Zillow estimate is $446,000.

Getting married at 43, I really hope I dont make it to 83 years. Who wants to be 126 years old?

Awesome and very rare. Wife and I are on 52 years of marriage at age 70. Got married 4 months after HS graduation.
