For Harold, the joy of their marriage has been amplified by the family they’ve built together. With five children, 19 grandchildren, and 19 great-grandchildren, their legacy is one of love and unity. “Who can ask for anything more?” Harold said. “No millionaire can say that. I don’t have the million, but I have many thanks for each one of them kids. They love one another, they get along, and they build their own homes, which makes me proud of them.”
A cherished family tradition that has brought the Lesage family even closer over the years is their Saturday morning breakfasts. For the past decade, the family members who live nearby have gathered every Saturday to share a meal—a simple yet profound way to stay connected and celebrate their bond.
As they look back on 70 years of marriage, Doreen and Harold’s story is a beautiful reminder that love, understanding, and a good sense of humor are the keys to a long, fulfilling relationship. Their journey together is an inspiration, not just to their family, but to anyone who believes in the power of enduring love.
