This is the smile

that lights my life...and has for more than 40 years.

We were best friends in high school, and told each other our troubles all the time. Finally, we realized that the people who were giving us trouble weren't the ones we should be with, and that was the beginning of a beautiful relationship!!

He never fails to amaze me with his kindness toward me, even after all these years. When he goes on business trips we both have a difficult time...we have spent very few nights apart in the course of our 40 year marraige.

So here's to you, Al!! Thank you for all you bring to our lives.
