It is a milestone that few are blessed enough to reach.
Ezra and Cleo (Gregory) Teeters of Waverly will be celebrating a very special Christmas Eve in 2020, which will also mark their 75th wedding anniversary.
While an internet search didnât reveal many specific statistics regarding couples reaching the their 75th, also called a diamond or second diamond anniversary (the first diamond anniversary is the 60th), the search did show that there are very few to reach this occasion.
Ezra and Cleo, both 94, were married in 1945. They met around the ages of 5 to 6 years old in the area of Salyers Road and Ladd Ridge, Camp Creek Township. They rode together in her dadâs 1929 Chevrolet to go to school, where Ezra said he âreally became interestedâ in Cleo. It was nearly 10 years before they could date at the ages of 16, since Cleo was not allowed to date before that time.
