We have been married this past May for 54 yrs...when I met him, he said he was 21 and his dad was a preacher...I told him I was going steady, and he said, Well, if you haven't married him yet, you never will...but did give him my phone number...I found out later, he was 27, and his dad had died when he was 16...needless to say, he was a little tipsy that night...Did wind up getting married after 3 months and 20 days...and everyone thought it wouldn't last...well 54 years later, and now he's 82 and I love him the same as the night I met him...I was 19 and back in 1962, they put your names and ages in the paper when you applied for a marriage license, I ask them not to post mine, cause I thought he was so old at 27 and I didn't want my mom to know how old he was...well, I shouldn't have worried about that...he still takes care of me...and my mom loved him till she passed away...at 93...
