Frank and Anita celebrated the event with family and friends at a party held at their care home in Plymouth, Devon.
They have two children, 78-year-old Marie and Frank, 73, plus five grandchildren and seven great-grandchildren, The couple list the secret of their happy marriage as "a little kiss before bed, trips to bingo and good plain English food".
Anita said: "Couples these days don't last long because they don't take enough time for each other. There just isn't enough respect.
"Our advice to young couples would be to make time for a little romance every day."
Retired dock worker Frank added: "We're very proud of what we have achieved
