We've all heard the saying Happy Wife, Happy Life but one man directly credits his wife for him living to be over 100 years old. Esmond Allcock of Saskatchewan, Canada recently turned 108 years old back in January and told reporters that his long life was due to him marrying the perfect woman. "I didn't behave myself for a few years there, but then I got a really good wife" Esmond told CBC News.

Esmond worked as a farmer most of his life and was lucky enough to be married to the love of his life Helen for 72 years. Unfortunately she passed away 7 years ago but her memory and Esmond's love for her has never faded. Esmond and Helen have 67 living relatives which includes 38 great-grandchildren and 11 great-great-grandchildren.
