In an era in which nearly half of all marriages end in divorce, Ron and Sybil Belcher’s longevity becomes more remarkable with each passing year.
Throughout 78 years they have stayed side-by-side, and look as happy today as they did on the day they tied the knot.
At 100 and 99-years-old they show no sign of slowing down, so long may their happy story continue.
They’re a shining example to us all.
