Seniors share their love advice
Leading up to Valentine's Day, we spent some time with Lawrencians who have been married for decades and know a thing or two about love.
Here's the advice they wanted to share with the younger generations on Valentine's Day.
To see a video of the people featured below, click here.
Wayne, 87, and Jackie Marrs, 84, have been married 65 years and live at Meadowlark Estates. Wayne's advice: "People who say 'I love you' don't know what they're talking about. Real love is when you go through the tough times together and can still smile about it." Jackie's advice: "Being equal. Don't be 60-40. Be 50-50 in your plans that you have for each other in your life."
