The Blessing of the Marriages is one of the staff’s favorite events at the Ventura County Fair. This year 30 couples who have been married over 40 years came to the ceremony along with friends and family. Gerry and Joyce Gullery of Ventura were the couple married the longest with 63 years together. We would like to thank all of our attendees who showed us what love, commitment, and vitality are all about. Congratulations on your lives together and thank you for blessing us with your affection for each other.
