Title: Many Happy Memories Over The Last 50 Years
Post by: Henry on September 03, 2010, 08:25:57 AM
It was 50 years ago this morning that Maryann and I were married down here in Fairfax Village at The Old St. Luke's Church.  Our wedding reception was held in the Old Gym at BFA.

I can honestly say that there was never a day in our married life that I regretted taking this step in my life.  I tried to find some recent photos of us with our two grandsons, but was unable to find one - Have some taken in 2005, but they have grown much since then.

Us girls were blessed to be raised in such a loving household. You two as a couple represent everything a marriage should be.  I don't remember ever seeing you two fight, you discussed things and you both learned to laugh at what others would argue about.  You supported each other in everyway and your number one priority has always been your family.

I Love You Daddy and I know Mom is sending Hugs and Kisses down to her Sweetie today.

I am sure it is both a sad and happy day for you Henry. Congratulations on your long and happy marriage and thank you for giving us the opportunity to acknowledge it in some small way on the forum. God bless you today and always.
