    30yrs ago today

     



    30yrs ago today(4-16-1980) I tricked this innocent young lady by the name of Denise to marry me
    And have children together .
    I couldn't have asked for a better person to be married too & she even puts up w/my crap & junk.
    Welllll to a certain point anyway
    It's been a fantastic ride & to make things even better she retired yesterday from work after 32yrs.
    So the real fun will be just beginning now...

    Oh by the way I have it from a good source that our son Joe & his wife may be moving to Japan where Joe is supposed to be stationed for at least the next 3yrs...joe

    Congratulations Joe,and Denise...its not that often now that you see a marriage that lasts that long...my folks were married 60 years,thats mind boggling...True love,trust and honesty with each other must have paid off...
    Hope you have many more good years together..

    It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

    Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.

    Nice tribute, Joe!

    On the fifth of this month Jane and I had our anniversary. That means that she has put up with me for thirty five years.

    That's remarkable. I sure as heck wouldn't have put up with me for 35 years!

    Obviously, we are lucky men.

    Congratulations and best wishes,


    Jim

    42 years for me and my high school sweetheart.

    She reminds me that she'd be outta jail by now had she killed me the first time she thought about it.

    Lucky ME!

    Congratulations, for all of those years. That's great of both of you staying together through good times and bad times when 50% of marriages fail. I know the thick and thin, it takes a lot of love to hold on, times are not always a bed of roses. My wife and I have been married for forty years. I have been through many surgeries like you and my wife was there through it all.

    My wife is going to retire in May of this year when she turns 62.

    I hope your son and his wife enjoy their stay in Japan it will be different but they should be fine.

    Take care and Happy Anniversary

    Richard
