Canadian couple celebrates 80th wedding anniversary
http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/sudbury/canada-s-longest-marriage-clem-and-millie-mintz-celebrate-80-years-1.2837942From the article:
Today is a special day for Clem and Millie Mintz. The couple is celebrating their 80th year of marriage and have been recognized as having the longest marriage in Canada.
Their grandson, Randy Higgins, nominated them through a faith-based group known as World Wide Marriage Encounter, which has launched a project to recognize some of North America’s longest-lasting marriages. The top spot in the United States went to Harold and Edna Owings of Burbank, Calif., who have been married more than 82 years.
