We were at your Wedding 45 years ago.We still have pictures of the Wedding Party with all the guys in there Blue tux´s and you were a beautiful Bride. So sorry we never got together since those days to meet with you and John..the years flew by but we always kept in touch with you yearly with a Christmas card updating each other how all of us were doing. This years card was quite a shock hearing that John has passed. We send you hugs and Prayers and heartfelt sympathy in your loss. Evelyn & Rod Marshall
