Friday, May 16, 2014 marked the 60th annivesary of my parents marriage…60 years!
I visted them in April for several days and was not able to get up there for this weekend. I did however, arrange for a dear family friend to call them. He was our parish priest back when I was a grade schooler and even though he has been at different parish for a couple of decades now, Msgr. Richard Behl is still our “family priest”
His call and blessing was really special and I am so glad I thought to do that. Mom told me they were on the phone for over 30 minutes.
Sixty years of joys, arguments, good days, bad days, children, sacrificing and just being a good illustration of what a marriage can be if you work at it and realize that you are never going to change your spouse.
Thank You, Mom & Dad for setting a good example. I hope Alicia can put up with me for that long.
Congratulations to your parents. What a long time. Great photo
