    Chateauroux, France – A French couple who celebrated their 81st wedding anniversary Friday offered this advice on love an longevity: Keep arguments to a minimum, eat well and wash it down with a glass of wine. Andre and Marguerite Debray met shortly after the end of World War 1, in which he served.
    They married on Aug. 12, 1924.
    Andre Debray is 107. His wife is 101. Retired for several decades, the Debrays spent their careers as teachers.
    The couple has two children, four grandchildren and six great grandchildren.
    Asked for the secret to staying together so long, Marguerite Debray replied: “Love and respect for the others person”
    Their fondness for each other has grown over time.
    “Life trained us. We never fought. We lived together so long that we have the same tastes, the same habits, “ Marguerite Debray told Le parisien newspaper.
    Andre Debray says he still enjoys a glass of wine with lunch.
    “ I also like a good wine, “ said Marguerite Debray, who added that she never followed a diet. “ I don’t know what that is. I eat everything that is edible.”- Associtated Press

    107 is quite a long life! My great grandmother lived to something like 104 but the last several years of her life weren't really all that great unfortunately...spent most of it in the hospital.

    do u think the wine has made their lives longer. keeping the body healthy by cleaning it out? other than that, that is truly amazing.

    to a certain extent i think it does, but if over done, i think it might do more harm than good(but almost anything in excess isnt good, balance is key)?
