It is a marriage that stands the test of time, never wrinkled with age. 
Billie and Gene Trageser say the story of how they met is a simple one that still brings a smile to their faces 70 years later. 

The Bucyrus, KS, couple met the old fashioned way. 

"I'm so lucky," said Billie, as she recalled the first time she set eyes on her future husband.
