63 Years

After I finished the graveside portion of the funeral yesterday I walked down the marker for my grandparents, George and Irene Bonner. As I stood there, I was reminded of their love for each other and commitment to each other. They were married for 63 years. Cyd and I have always told each other that we want to make it to 63 years, hopefully longer, before either one of us passes away. George and Irene's love have always been a source of inspiration for us. I had also forgotten that their anniversary is September 2. Claire's birthday is September 1, so maybe that's a sign that we will exceed 63 years.
