44 years ago today, July 1, 1967, it was a warm, humid day in Brentwood, Tennessee when two young people said their vows before God and their family to commit to each other in sickness and health, richer or poorer, for better or worse.
And, over the last 44 years, we have experienced sickness, health, riches, poverty, better and worse. It’s been a grand adventure and I wouldn’t have missed it for anything in the world.
We’re both very different people today than those two young people. We’ve grown together in ways we couldn’t ever have imagined that warm, humid day so long ago. I love Betty more today than I did that special day.
Whether we have 44 more days or 44 more years or something in between, I’m looking forward to every single day.
