Forty years of marriage…..

Through hills and valleys; through quiet plateaus and seasons of change you have walked together with courage, with love, with honesty, and now with grace

For nineteen of those years, I have had the gift of witnessing the truth of your hearts, ones that choose life, not death, kindness, not bitterness, faith, not condemnation

Your children have been blessed by you, and now your grandchildren carry that same joy forward
What a beautiful thing it is to see a family bound together in love, and united as one in Christ
So today with my heart and words, I honor you, Dale and Gaylene, and I thank you, not just for what you do, but for who you are

For simply being you

Here’s to your marriage, your family, and the beautiful life you have built together.

Happy Anniversary
