"To see them at this age and still doing well, it's just a bless to have them here," Williams-Greene told WSOC-TV.

The couple, who both celebrated their birthdays in March, said they don't have any real secrets to long life and lasting love.

"I don't have no secret for that, just be nice to each other," the couple said.
