My parents are elderly and don't have a marriage certificate (they married over 50 years ago). I am applying for their GC now and I need to send them a sample of an affidavit so they can get one prepared. Does anyone have that?

Hi Asif
I submitted two affidavits from different people who witnessed my wedding and also ongoing marriage. You have to just little organized the document according to your parents requirement and asked them to get from their friends or relatives.I got it the basic text from www.visajourney.com

In such situation sometime it takes a long time in getting new marriage certificate. You have to submit affidavit then some other important documents also need to be submitted like photo and evidence, then within some time they will provide certificate...
You can also check online because there are services which could be easier to do. At times it's difficult to process everything because we have limited time. I got my grand parents marriage certificate online too.
