Despite everything, they still appreciate and love each other.
This couple lived together for 70 years. And no matter what, they still appreciate and love each other.
Alas, the modern world is changing rapidly, and stories about such love seem to be fiction. And yet, how beautifully to meet once the very one with which you will spend the rest of your life!
Recently, they celebrated the 70th anniversary of the wedding. Today Nancy is already 86 years old, and her husband Melvin is 91 years old. One glance at this pair, it seems that the fire of their love never faded away.
Thematic photography for them was organized by their granddaughter Anna. She is a photographer by profession, so this photo shoot has become a pleasant gift for her grandparents.
Nancy and Melvin met in his youth. Melvin simply stood on one knee, turning to his lover with the proposal of his hand and heart, after which an affirmative answer followed. It happened at the city stadium.
The marriage was concluded in the Lutheran Church, which is located in Mitchell. The ceremony was elegant and simple.
For many years, Nancy cherished her wedding dress for many years.
The granddaughter took pictures in the garden. And since there were few photos from the wedding ceremony with her grandparents, Anna decided to capture Nancy in a wedding dress, and Melvin in uniform.
Wearing a uniform, Melvin seemed to get into a time machine that twisted him in a whirlpool of happy memories. The impression is that this couple returned 70 years ago.
On this day, they put on the rings to each other and officially became a wife and husband. But happiness was short -lived. Melvin, who was drafted into the army, was sent to study in Japan.
Then he came to his wife for a couple of weeks, after which he returned to Japan.
Young people maintained in touch through correspondence. But they did not remain so long apart. Upon returning home, Melvina was waiting for a calm and measured life.
The couple had five children. The father of the family worked as a seller, and the mother worked as part in a grocery store and led her household.
What is the secret of a strong union?
According to Nancy and Melvin, a strong marriage is based on mutual respect and forgiveness. Try to do everything so that both of you like life.
It is immediately noticeable how much this couple is in love with each other. They raised five children, twelve grandchildren and twenty-one great-grandson.
This strong and loving family was born out of boundless love.
