I met my wife, on April 9, 1978, as we walked into a coffee shop at the same time. Invited her and her sister to join me for coffee. We talked for 7 hours. She was 23, I was 36, a single dad with two teenage boys, truck farming 20 acres of veggies, farming grain, and livestock
She had two youngsters and was working two jobs, walking to work since she had no auto.
We met again 6 days later, talked another 8 hours, and a decision was made. We married on July 9, 1978, enjoyed more children and a full and happy life until she passed away last year>
We were opposites also.
I now have her service dog, our 3 children still alive, 9 grandchildren, and 13 Great- Grandchildren.
Happy Anniversary Cathy & Jon!
