And 93-year-old Faye and 95-year-old Kenneth shared a little about their love and what’s the secret to a happy marriage.
“He was handsome, and he sang and played the guitar, so put all of that together, it was very romantic,” Faye said as she gazed lovingly at her husband.
“Anytime I was feeling low, or feeling bad, I’d ask him, ‘Could I have a hug? Could I have a kiss?’ And he obliged!” she laughed. Faye shared that physical affection was very important to both her and Kenneth.

The couple also stresses the importance of open communication and never letting problems fester. “We always talked it out,” said Faye.
Laughter and companionship were also important to the pair, as well as sharing common interests.
“We loved to laugh,” Faye said. “We played cards, we played dominoes, we had a regular poker game. I did not even think of divorce. Murder, a few times, but…” Faye said jokingly with a laugh.
And Kenneth talked about how faithfulness was always a key to their successful marriage.
“We never even talked about getting rid of each other, it was always the other way around. Sticking together,” he said.
