OUR 60TH WEDDING ANNIVERSARY<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
We were married August 24, 1963.  Some would think that was a long time ago.For us, Marjorie and  me, those<\/div>\n
60 years seem like yesterday. Seems we have sampled life deeply in all its twists and turns ..  super events.<\/div>\n
Right from the moment we first danced at a Victoria College, U. if T  \u201cget to know each other\u201d dance  through all those 60 years.<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
Marjorie had lots of boyfriends to choose from.  Nice guys, I met most of them.  But the chemistry between us was like<\/div>\n
a magnet.  We have been kindred spirits for those 60 years. <\/div>\n
We were lucky enough to have had two boys Kevin and Andrew, whose upbringing was an unending joy.   We tried to <\/div>\n
show them that love triumphs.   That the world in which we spend our life is a good place.  That life is meant to be shared.  We are social<\/div>\n
animals.<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
.   Nice!   Now there is a word worth a comment.   Marjorie is a very nice person.  I felt that the first time I danced with her.   before I even knew her name.<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
And now sixty year later she remains one of the nicest persons I have ever met\u2026.and ever will meet.<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
She has enriched my life.<\/div>\n

ROGER MILLER<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
LITTLE GREEN APPLES<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n

And i wake up in the morning with my hair down in my eyes and she says hi<\/span>
And i stumble to the breakfast table while the kids are going off to school, goodbye.<\/span>
And she reaches out and takes my hand and squeezes it and says how you feeling hon?<\/span>
And i look across at smiling lips that warm my heart, and see my morning sun.<\/span>

And if that’s not loving me, then all i’ve got to say,<\/span>
God didn’t make the little green apples, and it don’t rain in indianapolis in the summer time.<\/span>
And there’s no such thing as dr. seuss or disney land and mother goose, no nursery rhymes.<\/span>
God didn’t make the little green apples, and it don’t rain in indianapolis in the summer time.<\/span>
And when myself is feeling low, i think about her face and go and ease my mind.<\/span>

Sometimes i call her up, at home, knowing she’s busy.<\/span>
And ask her if she can get away, meet me and maybe we can grab a bite to eat.<\/span>
And she drops what she’s doing and she hurries down to meet me, and i’m always late.<\/span>
But she sits waiting patiently, and smiles when she first sees me, because she’s made that way.<\/span>

And if that ain’t loving me, then all i’ve got to say,<\/span>
God didn’t make the little green apples, and it don’t snow in minneapolis when the winter comes.<\/span>
And there’s no such thing as make-believe, puppy dogs or autumn leaves, no bb guns.<\/span>
God didn’t make the little green apples, and it don’t snow in minneapolis when the winter comes.<\/span>
