Once upon a time…
a handsome young man and a beautiful young woman fell in love and got married.

Yesterday they celebrated fifty-nine years of marriage…
loving each other for better for worse, in sickness and in health.

Mom set a beautiful table… china, goblets, candles, music and Dad’s favorite take-out dinner from Carrabas. That was alot of effort for Mom to go to… pack it up, take to the nursing home, set it up, pack it up again, take it home. But that’s the kind of woman my Mom is. Commited, loving, giving, creative… amazing. Dad’s a blessed man!

They looked through scrapbooks, reminisced and enjoyed being together.

Thank you Mom and Dad for the wonderful example of true love and commitment you have given to our family.

Happy Anniversary!

p.s. We were so happy that Dad was having a good day, commenting on photos and as you can tell from the photo above, alert and smiling for the camera. He even told Mom thank you as she was leaving.
