Today, 53 years ago, my parents made their promises to each other, for better or for worse. I have greatly benefited from that commitment. My family has also been greatly blessed by their example of faithfulness and love.

Thanks Mom and Dad!

Here’s a sketch I made for their 50th Anniversary…

How fun. You gotta love that first picture. It speaks volumes.

Nicely ‘done’ you two.
You have made quite a healthy legacy.
Thanks.

Jim, Diana and I were trying to figure out who’s who. We got your folks(DUH!!!), Uncle Don, and Ellie & Carroll as well as Christine. We just weren’t sure who the rest were.

Congrats to them for being yet another example to us all of the love and commitment that sometimes gets forgotten in today’s society.
