TO OUR CHILDREN..
Some said it will never workout .. here we are nearly 50 years later..
We nearly lost the game, but never did we gave up the fight..
Ups and downs, tossed and turned, good days and bad..
In the end we could not let go ..
We clung hard when the firestorm nearly drove us to the brink..
We looked deep within ourselves and fought to go on.
Through faith we knew we couldn’t win without Him..
As soon as we looked to our deliverer, our savior, our God, the water became still, and the dawn gave us that new day..
He has blessed us beyond measure..
Six gorgeous and loving children and spouses, significant others, and our even more gorgeous grandkids..
Yes, FAITH gave us the love and strength to always cling hard and fast to these fifty years together.
We stand today where many have stood ..
We accepted the challenge and won the race with tears and laughter.
Please, continue the climb ..
Dig deep within your souls and you will win the battle..
Your family is worth every tear stained night, and every heart break ..
Tomorrow the tears will be dry and your heart renewed..
Continue each day enlightened by your new found strength and fight harder for every moment together.
There are many who, through no fault of their own, would have loved to continue together ..
NEVER GIVE UP ...
Stand on our shoulders.. All our years together, we have become strong enough to share your burdens with you ..
Look past the moment and find your purpose..
God will bless you
mightly.
With all♥️our love,
Mom and Dad
