DW: Guess it's not a race to "death to us part"....
A coupleās 50thĀ wedding anniversary is gold, and the 60thĀ is diamond, but what do you get the lovebirds that have been married for 80 years?Ā RobertĀ andĀ Edith Mae SchaumĀ met in high school in 1936 and got married on December 26th, 1942.
Itās quite an accomplishment, but the two 102-year-olds arenāt quite to the world record yet. According to theĀ Guinness Book of Records, the longest marriage was set in 2011 at 86 years and 290 days. By the way, the 80thĀ anniversary is āoak,ā and thereās no name for the 90thĀ anniversaryā¦because no oneās ever celebrated one.
