I'm happy to say my wife Nancy and I were married 48 years ago to day. It was a sunny day just like today. We both were scared to death about how things would go in the next few years. I had just turned 19 and Nancy just turned 18. 48 years later we have 5 children 12 grand-children and one great grand child. All in good health.
Marriage is the best teacher of all. It teaches you loyalty, meekness, forbearance, self-restraint, forgiveness -- and a great many other qualities you wouldn't have needed if you'd stayed single.
