ReplyDeleteWhat an inspiring story!
I was all set to post this at my web site, and had thoroughly researched the Internet, finding the original source, providing automatic Internet links to everything, and posting the complete text of their interview (which was conducted on Valentine's Day in 2010, along with two (02) photographs.
However, I wanted to know if they are still living, and tragically, after much searching, I found that one of them (not identified) has passed on.
Thus, according to the WIKIPAEDIA web site, the current longest married couple in the World are Karam and Kartari Chand, who reside in Bradford, West Yorkshire, United Kingdom.
Shucks, I really wish I could have posted that.
You should have seen what the finished product looked like!
I put a great deal of work into composing and editing it, but now, I can't use it.
Thank you.

Sure you can! Just note that one has passed away. The story will be more than appreciated, I am sure.
