Quito, Ecuador – Julio Mora parted ways with his parents on February 1 to secretly marry Vladra Drama Quintoros. Both families declined.
Seventy years later, they are still together – at the age of 110 and she at the age of 104, both good and in good health, although relatives say they are a little frustrated because they miss out on their large family recipients. Due to the epidemic.
There are long marriages, but according to Guinness World Records – there is no one else among such older people now, shorter than the combined 215 years.
Mora was born on March 10, 1910, and Quintoros was born on October 16, 1915. They were married on February 7, 1941, in Quito in the first Spanish-built church: La Iglesia de El Bellen.
Both retired teachers live in Quito, the capital of Ecuador, where they received a Guinness certificate in mid-August.
His daughter Cecilia says they are both very active and active, even though they don’t have the agility of the past. But “for a month they were apart, more downcast because they miss a big family reunion.”
And they can gather quite a crowd: four surviving children, 11 grandchildren, 21 great-grandchildren and one great-great-grandchild.
“Since March, we haven’t had any of them,” Cecilia said. “My parents need family contact.”
She said her father enjoys watching television and drinking milk and her mother, who enjoys sweets, likes to read the newspaper every morning.
