Eight decades of marriage, and their connection remains as strong as ever.

Just recently, the couple had the most beautiful celebration.
It was a day filled with joy, laughter, and memories as dozens of family members and friends gathered to honor Roger and Beverly’s 80-year-long journey together.

In an interview with WTOL 11, Roger shared:

“I look at other people when they die and their mates go on for a while, and we’ve just been together all this time.”

Their love story began in Fulton County.
As high school sweethearts, they walked the halls of Fayette High School, graduating in May 1943.

Just a few months later, they embarked on their lifelong journey together as a married couple.

Even their children are proud and amazed at their parents’ long-lasting relationship.
Their eldest daughter, Jane Moore, expressed her gratitude, saying,

“I’m just very blessed – we all are – to still have both of our parents, let alone have them celebrate this 80th with all of our friends and family.”

Today, both Roger and Beverly are 98, their lives filled with rich experiences.
Roger spent his years working the land as a farmer, while Beverly nurtured their growing family.

Their legacy? Four children, 10 grandchildren, 20 great-grandchildren, and a whopping nine great-great-grandchildren.
