It must be bliss.

Arthur Jacobs, age 105, and Marcia Jacobs, age 100, just celebrated their 80th wedding anniversary. Their grandson, Gabe Jacobs, caught the happy couple on the eve of their big day in a video:

In the video post, Gabe Jacobs said: My grandparents are incredible. Arthur is 105 (born 1912), Marcia is 100 (born 1917). Tomorrow marks the 80th year they have been married. They are one of the oldest living couples in The United States. Marcia can really only say “hello, hello” but she seems to have some sort of understanding of her surroundings (watch her crack up at Gideon’s joke in the first clip). Arthur is a beautiful man and so incredibly in love with Marcia. You can tell how sad he is that she is can no longer communicate. Proud to have descended from these superhumans."

The couple made news on The Knot, Inside Edition, Brides and People.
