My parents had been married for 24 years when my mom passed away. My dad passed 10 years later. It wasn't a bowl of cherries for my mom because my dad was an alcoholic, but my mom stuck it out. They were not married in the Catholic Church and just before she died my mom was looking into getting their marriage blessed (convalidation).

Awesome, congrats to Mr. and Mrs. sighyoung, My folks will have their 60th this April. They made the whole thing look easy, very rare now that I am old enough to have seen that. Marriage, child rearing, ... just came easy to them - they were like Carlos Beltran chasing down an easy fly ball. It seemed like they could have done it with their eyes closed.

And me and my siblings were the benefactors of that.

Well, today marks my 30th wedding anniversary. Easily the best decision of my life. And, as luck would have it, it would have been my parents' 70th wedding anniversary, too. At least they enjoyed 57 years together.
