Despite the pandemic and shelter-in-place protocols, the couple from upstate New York nurtured their blossoming relationship.

During a segment of On the Road, John quipped to CBS’s Steve Hartman, “She was worth it. It was a pain in the neck, though.”

They were soon able to meet more regularly after getting vaccinated and certain restrictions were lifted.

Their bond grew stronger and their love grew deeper until John proposed like a gentleman would.

John’s son Pete shared the secret to the newly married couple’s successful relationship: “Perseverance.”
