Inyoni Creek Retirement Village residents Mike (93) and Golda (94) Brittany’s love has stood the test of time as the couple celebrated their 68th wedding anniversary.

The couple, who moved to the village 10 years ago, celebrated the anniversary on August 24.

They met at a wedding where Mike declared that he would one day make Golda his wife. Three years later, he slipped a ring on to her finger and they have been side by side ever since.
