59 years ago today my parents were married. Don’t they make a lovely couple? With mutual love shining out from their faces they had their whole lives ahead of them.
The following two photos were taken on their honeymoon in the Adirondacks.
I think my Dad looks like he could have been a movie star, but then again I might just be a wee bit prejudiced.
They were the best parents a child could ever hope for. Loving. Caring. Supportive. Always there to lend an ear or moral support. I miss them so. My Dad passed away almost ten years ago; my Mom I lost a year ago August. Oddly enough, they both died about a week and a half before their respective birthdays.
I’ve had dreams about them lately (as I wrote a few weeks back). In those dreams they were together. Again. Normally when I dream about them one or the other is in my dream but not both. I’d like to think that the meaning behind those dreams is that they found each other through the great expanse of the Hereafter.
Mom, Dad, wherever you are today, Happy Anniversary. I love and miss you both more than you’ll ever know.
