Steve and Jerri Lynn Lyddon were married Oct. 5, 1974.
“Our family thinks this is an incredible achievement, especially when you look at marriage and divorce rates these days,” daughter Marie Lyddon said.
Marie said Steve and Jerri Lynn are a very loving couple who do their best to take care of each other.
“They talk on the phone every day if my dad has a trip, and they have lunch together nearly every day if he doesn’t,” she said. “Watching them together is truly an inspiration and something to which other wedded couples should aspire. We are very proud of them and humbled by their dedication to each other.”
