The Secret to Lasting Love: Lessons from D.V. and Willie Williams -

Married couples who stay together for decades are becoming increasingly rare in today’s world. It often leaves us wondering, what is the secret behind their lasting love? The answer, it seems, varies from couple to couple.

One golden piece of advice that has stuck with many of us is to “never go to bed mad at each other.” This simple rule has a profound impact on keeping the love alive, even after many years of marriage. Trust and communication are also crucial for maintaining a strong relationship, especially in the early stages.

But there is one couple from North Carolina that truly deserves admiration for their incredible achievement – celebrating 82 years of marriage! What’s even more remarkable is that they also recently celebrated their 103rd and 100th birthdays, just seven days apart.

D.V. Williams, aged 103, and Willie Williams, aged 100, were honored with a special celebration in Charlotte, surrounded by their friends and family. Their granddaughter, BJ Williams-Green, expressed her joy at seeing them in such good health, stating, “Seeing them at this age and so well is still good, it’s just a blessing they’re still here.”
