Today, 50 years ago on 4th March 1972, Grant and I married.
When I look at my wedding album, the smiles and the expectation of great things waiting in our lives, I think, thank goodness we cannot see into the future...
Nevertheless, I've enjoyed a good life and even though, I was widowed more than four years ago, I decided that I was NOT going to ignore such an important date when it came around.
Today, on my own, I am celebrating my 50th anniversary.

Thank you to my dear sister, Rose, on my right in the group wedding photo. Rose and I have always been close siblings even into our golden years. And to my sister-in-law, Shelley, who married Grant's brother (the young man on the far left of the photo) a few years later and with whom I have had a close relationship for 46 years. Rose and Shelley contacted me first thing this morning and said they were thinking of me. How very special...
HAVE A GREAT FRIDAY
This is such a lovely post dear Jo - and even though Grant is not with you I still congratulate you on 50 years, especially for moving on in such a positive way these past four years. The wedding pix are awesome - you were an exquisite bride, so pretty - still are - and the two of you certainly made a fabulous life together.
