clowning, can’t help it ... life is a blast when we have good company, and when it’s not easy, we have people who carry us through.

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY MY SWEETHEART

47 years ago this Tuesday, August 12th, Christine said that she would commit herself to me in marriage and we began a life together that has given us years of service to others, fulfillment, personal growth, contentment, memories forever, and two children and now their spouses and their children. What a great way to spend a few decades. I could not be happier. Thanks my sweetheart.

Christine, you even like to have fun, although had both of us looked something like the following characters we may have walked away from one another.


But fortunately we simply aged gracefully and didn't need to play coverup. I think we have made it.




Imagine, we are going for 50 … not so far off.

anniversary poem: FORTY-SIX YEARS AND COUNTING

FORTY-SIX YEARS AND COUNTING 

Under an arbor we once stood with roses
Hanging overhead, her arm through mine, smiling
As cameras clicked to lock in time our poses,
On the day we said we do.

I bring morning coffee as she lies dreaming.
I turn to leave as she wakes with smiling eyes,
These forty-six years later she’s still beaming
Looking forward to our day.

Under an arbor we stand in warm embrace,
So much that’s different, so much that’s the same.
I see without effort the love in her face,
Both consider ourselves blessed.
