6. They've been together 23 years, and they are 76 and 85 years old.

"It was just so amazing," 76-year-old Phyllis Siegel said as she stood outside the City Clerk's office in Manhattan with her newly betrothed, Connie Kopelov. Kopelov, 85 and in a wheelchair, and Siegel have been together 23 years. They were the first same-sex couple to get married in the city."

I love that photo! Wonderful that they both have lived long enough to see this day.
