Awesome! That is great and I wish you many, many more!

My folks made it to 64 years.

A bunch of us old married folk hanging out here.

Painter, you and your husband are in rarefied air to have made and lived up to such a committment. You have something special and I'm sure you deserve it. Happy Anniversary.

Regards,

D-Ray

Just keep working at it Bill. Remember that dishing up a bit of your mushy side will go a long ways towards marital bliss.

Just remember that Hi-C no longer sells Ecto Cooler so be alert to refreshing green fluorescent drinks appearing. All joking aside, congratulations on your 37 years.

Congratulations on the 55! Where did you originally meet? We've heard Merrylander's neat story about meeting Florence so perhaps you'd share.

Thank all of you for your good wishes on our special day!
We have been blessed. Though we face challenges ahead...we have each other to weather the storm.

Blessings to you and yours.

Congrats! Is a good day indeed!

So me and BBill both celebrated 37 years of bliss. We do have things in common.

Hope to be able to enjoy my 55th someday.
