Couple celebrates their 100th birthdays together after 75 years of marriage

Josephine and Alfred from Corby, Northamptonshire, have been together longer than some countries have existed. The pair are so dedicated to each other that they have been together since World War II.

The couple recently celebrated their 100th birthdays with a big party which brought together friends and family. From their late teens/ early 20s, these lovebirds have been together and met when Alf was serving as a marine.

Jo worked as a Land Army Girl in WW2 and caught Alf’s eye, beginning a love story that would last forever. The pair settled down in Corby, reports NorthantsLive, where Alf worked at the steelworks while Jo practised playing the piano and organ.
