Mom and Dad were married on Mom's birthday. ( If I had waited another day to get born, we would have had a 'Hat Trick'!)  The above picture was taken on their Golden Wedding Anniversary, at the Farm.  In the nine years since Mom's passing, Dad has  continued living at home, but lonely without her.  A few months after his 91st birthday, his health began to decline, first slowly, then more rapidly.  On their 64th Anniversary, we laid him to his final rest next to her.  They were ....... Together Again.
