Marjorie and Bernie, two incredible individuals aged 102 and 100, respectively, have recently embarked on a new chapter of their lives together as a married couple. It's hard to believe, but these centenarians met nearly a decade ago in their care home and have been inseparable ever since.
Their love story has captured the hearts of many, and their family and friends couldn't be happier for them. In fact, some believe that Marjorie and Bernie may have broken a Guinness World Record with their combined age of 202 years. The previous record holders, Doreen and George Kirby from England, had a combined age of 194 when they tied the knot in 2015.
For Bernie's granddaughter, Sarah Sicherman, it's a joy to see her grandfather find companionship in Marjorie. She shared with Fox News that they are both fortunate to have found each other and have been a great support system for one another, especially during the challenging times of the pandemic.
The couple's wedding, which took place on May 19, was a beautiful celebration of their love and a testament to the fact that it's never too late to find love. Marjorie and Bernie's love story is truly unique and has captured the attention of many, including Sarah who proudly shared the news on Facebook.
It's heartwarming to know that Bernie's first marriage to Bernice lasted for 65 years before she passed away in 2012. And a few years later, he met Marjorie at a costume party, and their first date coincidentally fell on the same day his great-granddaughter was born.
For Bernie's family, his decision to marry Marjorie was a surprise as they never imagined him getting married again. But Rabbi Adam Wohlberg, who officiated the wedding, shared that the couple had reached a point where being more than just friends felt like the natural next step.
During the ceremony, the Rabbi did not offer any marriage advice to the couple as they were already experts in that department, having a wealth of experience between them. He remarked that what they love and appreciate about each other will remain unchanged in the future.
Marjorie, who was previously married to her husband Morris until his passing in 1999, knew that Bernie was someone incredibly special from the moment they met. Interestingly, there's a chance that the two may have crossed paths earlier in life when they were both studying at the University of Pennsylvania. However, with different degrees and departments, they were not aware of each other's existence at the time.
The couple's Rabbi even joked that they may make the cover of the university's alumni magazine with their incredible love story. And when it comes to their Guinness World Record application, Bernie's daughter Sarah revealed that it's currently pending, but she believes they will break the record for "Oldest Aggregate Age Couple to Marry" by about eight years.
Marjorie and Bernie's love story is truly one for the ages, and it's a reminder that love knows no age limits. Do you have a heartwarming story like this to share? We'd love to hear it! Get in touch with us by emailing [insert email].
