An American couple from Ohio celebrated 79 years of marriage last month and are now celebrating another milestone: their 100th wedding anniversary.

June Malicote was born on July 13, 1922 while her husband Hubert Malicote was born 10 days later on July 23, 1922.

Family, friends, neighbors and church members joined the couple on Friday, July 15 at the Eaton Road Church of God in Hamilton, Ohio, for a joint anniversary celebration starting at 4 p.m. at 7 p.m. Mister.

Around 130 guests came to celebrate with husband and wife.

“We just kind of live by the day and all of a sudden we’re 100 years old,” Hubert Malicote told Fox News Digital in a phone interview.

They met at a Church in 1941 and met four times, just chatting and getting to know each other before they starting dating.

Eventually, Hubert plucked up the courage to give his future wife a peck on the lips and was so nervous that he ran out the door after doing so.

What followed was marriage, 79 years of happiness and a very large family to celebrate their achievements with on their 100th birthday celebrations.
