San Diego Couple Celebrates 70th Wedding Anniversary

San Diego Couple Celebrates 70th Wedding Anniversary

The Balboa Park Senior Lounge celebrated the 70th wedding anniversary of a San Diego couple Friday morning.

Mike and Jackie DiMaggio, who are both 92 years old, have been regularly attending the senior lounge four times a week since 2005. They say the lounge is like a secondary living room and consider the people they visit with their extended family.

When asked what the secret is to maintaining a long marriage, Mike said, “I do everything she tells me to do. That’s the secret.”
