Love and Marriage After 63 Years


After 63 years of marriage, one couple from Texas is stronger than ever. Karl and Donna Von Schwarz are high school sweethearts who have been through it all together. They’ve overcome a lot, especially in the last year, and Karl wanted to make a recommitment of his love to Donna.


So he dropped down on one knee and re-proposed — more than six decades after he did the first time.


The couple married in 1956 and had four kids together — followed by nine grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren, with one more on the way, their granddaughter Karly Gibbs told CBS News.



I go into reading a lot of stories with a very cynical “this is click-bait” mentality. That’s how I went into this story. But after actually reading through this story, I came to see it was actually very nice. With all the focus put on the day itself, it’s cool to see the other side and what that one big day can lead to.
