50 Years of Marriage

My sister Martha and her husband William will celebrate their anniversary in a couple of weeks.  (The article below was in The Paris News this past weekend.)  There's not many people can say they've been married this long.  But, they did it. 
God blessed them with 3 kids, Melody, Todd & Wendy, and 2 grandchildren, Nathan & Natalie. 
I'm so happy for them...married 50 years....retired....in good health  AND they still love each other!
