One Hundred Years of Marriage


This is Kathy and I with our friends Ken and Ronnie.  They lived across the street from us back in the early 1970's.  He and I were both sailors and we became friends as a couple.  They were transferred first to North Carolina, and then to Milan, Italy, where we visited them.  They are now in Charleston, South Carolina.  But here is the amazing thing - we were married on September 13, and they were married on September 15, in the same year!  And this year is the 50th anniversary for the both of us!  We had a dinner tonight in Venice, California, and our children and their children all came.  What makes my head spin is the thought this photograph of the four of us represents one hundred years of marriage!  Astounding!
