A life together, between happy moments, others more complex but always united.
Tonight 100 couples received from the deputy mayor Giorgio Angius the parchments signed by the first citizen of Cagliari Paolo Truzzu for celebrating their golden wedding in 2022 .
The backdrop was a packed Teatro Massimo and the songs of Bobby Solo , guest of honor who received the Alziator Lifetime Achievement Award for the music section.
His successes accompanied the memories of couples who grew up with songs such as ''A tear on the face'' or ''Gypsy'' and which, in some cases, also represented the right moment for the first step.
In the front row sit Pierpaolo Marcia , 76 years old today, with his wife Greca Miliddi 70 years old. The emotion is great and despite their shyness they talk about their relationship with joy and enthusiasm. «We are both originally from the Castello district», they say, « we met in 1964. We have lived many moments together, clearly there have been ups and downs but we have always remained united». An affectionate hug, a kiss on the cheek and a final greeting from Pierpaolo. “Going back, I'd remarry without hesitation to my Greca. Those were the best years of our lives."
Years marked by trust, meeting each other and a love that has become ever stronger as in the case of Tonino Contini , a retired air force marshal, and Rossana Manca , a former employee of Rinascente, who were the same age as 77, married on 9 September 1972 "We met in 1962 at La Rinascente," says Tonino. « I still remember how Rossana was dressed the first time I saw her: she had a white dress with blue streaks, a beautiful tan we were in October. We got engaged shortly after then she left me after just a week but I didn't give up. I fought for my love and now we are here with a wonderful family ».
