They were married in 1924! What great social changes this couple has seen over their time together.

From the article:

"He was not mean; he was not a fighter," Zelmrya said. "He was quiet and kind. He was not much to look at but he was sweet."

Those oldsters surely can be brutally honest, can't they?
