I think this is wonderful these people have found love again and are a committed couple - even without a legality of marriage.

What are some other thoughts on this?
I know a few couples who are in this situation, and I think at our age, it is absolutely wonderful. If companionship is so important to you, and I know many people feel they want that, then more power to them and we are so lucky to live in such a place where that happiness can be found.
