Your kids may not realize the tumultuous times of 1969 when you married your love. Your relationship prospered and grew, well done. In addition you maintained your faith, a remarkable achievement given the changes in society and the church. I really enjoyed saying hi at our last reunion. When next I see you I look forward to your reaction to Vard picking you up at...
