As of tomorrow morning Sep.19th it will have been 45 years ago, we were just a very young couple, deeply in love, standing together with a lifetime ahead of us.
Today, 45 years later, our love for each other has never wavered. Through every season—the victories, the challenges, the laughter, the tears, and all the unexpected turns of life—God has been faithful, and we have walked through it all together.
Through all the adventures and traveling the world. All my crazy stunts, feats, accomplishments and failure’s my nurse (she actually is) my companion and best friend has always been right in the middle of it with me.
I thank God every day for the woman He gave me to share this life with. I’m thankful for the three wonderful children we raised, our 2 beautiful grandboys who have filled our lives with so much joy, and the incredible church family God has allowed us to love and serve together.
Looking back, I realize that 45 years of marriage isn’t about having a perfect life. It’s about choosing each other again and again, keeping God at the center, and holding on to one another through every season.
Lorie, I loved you then, I love you now, “always and forever”, and after 45 years, I’d still choose you all over again.
Happy 45th Anniversary to the love of my life.
God has always been so very good to us. And we are truly thankful!!!!!
