Default 50 years

Today July 29th my wife and I will celebrate 50 years of marriage. We raised four kids and now have 10 Grankids and 1 Great grandaughter. I feel very lucky, to have survived as so many of our friends are divorced. I once jokingly said to my wide that I wanted a divorce she said "you can't afford it"! Maybe that's the secret,a sense of humor.

Art,

Congratulations! Wish you many more.

Folks like you and your wife furnish the stable foundation this country needs.

Better yet ...you understand that and other things that are important.

Congratulations to you (Art) and your lovely bride, 50 years goes by very fast especially when you have a great marriage.

It seems that too many folks "toss in the towel" too soon these days and don't really try to work together to solve all the issues in life...just think what they've missed.

Happy Days to You guys, Bill

Art, that is an amazing accomplishment given the world we live in. You should be proud. Now, from what I can tell, the next 50 will be a bit easier.
