This Wilmington couple, who celebrated their 25th wedding anniversary, share their tips on a long and successful marriage.

Kajsa and Richard Haracz 
of North Wilmington celebrated their 25th wedding anniversary on June 8. 

The keys to a successful marriage: Love and commitment; without those, nothing else matters. Patience and forgiveness; through the course of a relationship, there will be many challenges. These qualities are essential to work through them. Selflessness; you must think of the other person’s needs for the marriage to grow. And teamwork; life is a journey that is best traveled together. Have your partner’s back, always.
