URBANNA — ‘Gracious sakes!” My grandmother would have exclaimed to hear of a marriage that lasted 60 years. That was probably because in those days people didn’t live as long as they do now, thus length of marriages were shorter.
Yet, in today’s world a 60-year wedding anniversary is still rare. Not because of dying earlier but because of rising divorce rates.
I feel a bit of a dinosaur. But I am filled with wonder. How in the world did Chip and I make 60 years of marriage?
