Worldwide Marriage Encounter, a faith-based marriage enrichment program, sponsored a contest to find the longest-married couple in America. About 150 couples had been married for 60 to 69 years; 100 couples had been married for 70 to 79 years; and three couples had been married for more than 80 years!
The winning couple, Marshall and Winnie Kuykendall, has been married for 82 years. They lived in New Mexico (both have passed), where they celebrated their 82nd anniversary on February 14, 2011.
I love being married but wow, 82 years and both around 100 years old. Not that I don't like it down here on the 3rd rock from the sun but I'd rather move on to a better place before I'm that old, where I can hang out for eternity with awesome people. Great news, no Democrats or cats will be there. Hey, don't kill the messenger!
