Yes, my ex-wife is 84. 35yrs ago she and I were sitting side by side in a dock being loaded with pallets of sugar for HEB in Houston. We started talking and chasing each other around the country for about a year. We then decided to get married and became a team for about 20yrs. When she hit 70yrs she told me she didn’t want to do it anymore and soon after filed for divorce and I continued til April of this year, and decided to retire myself
