They met in a 1960s group house. Nearly 50 years later, they’re still roommates.
Great story about friends growing old together.

There was nothing remarkable about them when they first began living together. Margaret Sugg moved into a Georgetown group house in 1967 that already included Nancy Fassett. A few years later, Barbara Fletcher joined them.
The part that amazes people: Almost five decades later, the three women are still roommates.
They’ve aged as a threesome, best friends in their 70s and 80s who continue to share their lives in a tidy brick duplex in Asbury Methodist Village, a retirement community in Gaithersburg, Md.
It’s a relationship that has cemented into something as solid as any marriage, or any family....

How could any reasonable person oppose the love these women have?
There are some out there.
I think they're right on!
