P.A. love story lasts six decades
When it comes to advice on love, Harold and Shirley Dickson have a few pointers. The couple has been married for 67 years.
“You have to find an understanding wife and a forgiving wife, for one thing,” Harold joked when asked about the secret to their long-lasting relationship.
The Dickson’s were married in 1950, two years after they met at a church skating party. Harold said he admired the way Shirley looked, but he didn’t realize she was the one until after a few dates.
“I think it was the second or third time we dated I thought ‘hey, this has gotta be it,’” he said with a laugh.
