"Is there anything more beautiful in life than a boy and a girl clasping clean hands and pure hearts in the path of marriage? Can there be anything more beautiful than young love?"

"Yes, there is a more beautiful thing. It is the spectacle of an old man and an old woman finishing their journey together on that path. Their hands are gnarled, but still clasped; their faces are seamed, but still radiant; their hearts are physically bowed and tired, but still strong with love and devotion for one another. Yes, there is a more beautiful thing than young love. Old love."

COME ON IN AND SIT WITH ME
SO WE CAN GET TO KNOW EACH OTHER

I HAVE TWO MARRIED CHILDREN AND ONE GRANDDAUGHTER.

MY HUSBAND AND I WERE BOTH IN THE NAVY . WE MET IN NEW YORK CITY IN 1945 JUST BEFORE THE END OF WORLD WAR II. WE DATED FOR SIX MONTHS AND THEN WERE MARRIED IN THE LITTLE CHURCH AROUND THE CORNER IN NEW YORK CITY.

AFTER HE RETIRED FROM THE MILITARY AND I RETIRED FROM FEDERAL CIVIL SERVICE WE SETTLED IN MISSISSIPPI AND MADE IT OUR HOME.

BOTH OF OUR CHILDREN FINISHED HIGH SCHOOL THERE. MY SON THEN WENT TO MISS. STATE IN STARKVILLE, MS AND MY DAUGHTER WENT TO CHRISTIAN BROTHERS IN MEMPHIS, TN

MY SON AND DAUGHTER HAVE LIVED IN RUSSELLVILLE, AR FOR SOME YEARS AND NOW AND IT'S OUR HOME TOO!! I HAVE ONE GRANDDAUGHTER, WE ARE LIVING JUST DOWN THE STREET FROM HER AND MY DAUGHTER IS 3 MINUTES WALKING DISTANCE JUST ACROSS THE CREEK. THIS IS A LIFETIME DREAM COME TRUE FOR ALL US TO BE THIS CLOSE TOGETHER AGAIN.

Please come back soon!
