Thoughts and stories, by Pal

I posted this on September 12, 2015, just a bit over 2 years ago.  But today is the official day of our Wedding anniversary!  We were married 62 years ago today.  Little did we know that a bit more than 5 months would be all we would have together on this earth!  At the point we had this celebration on Labor Day 2 years ago, he was beginning radiation for esophageal cancer, and went through some difficult physical problems.  HE NEVER COMPLAINED!  It was almost a surprise when he passed away, because his last full day he dressed himself, and tried to do all he could for himself.  We had put him on hospice the day before, and only that last day did he use a walker and wheelchair.  He truly endured to the end of his life, with faith and dignity!   496. Our 60th Wedding Anniversary Party last Saturday, Sept. 5th, 2015. Just a week ago today, we were honored by our family, about our 60th Wedding Anniversary, which will officia...

Today my youngest son, Jeremy, will be married!  Check out blog # 704, last September 20, 2016, to read about his life.  He has had trials and disappointments in life, as we all have had, but this marriage will bring him such great happiness, I know!  You can see him play the piano on these places on youtube:  The first is a rag-time and the second Valse Romantique by DeBussy.  He performed at the Town and Country Bank on February 24, 2017, this year.  I absolutely love his dear wife to be -- today!  More about that later.  Also are some beautiful thoughts for the day included.  Have a wonderful day!   This was taken several years ago when he played in a concert in the Tabernacle. ▶ 2:27 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YYX0hPVa29U ▶ 3:44 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WzUx4p5mKEA March 15, 2017 Iron Rod SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY 1 Nephi 15:23-24 "And they said u...

This was first posted in 2014, and again in 2015.  Since then we have added more family weddings!  My first Valentine's Day without Wayne I have had the roses below plugged in, as they light up pretty! HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY, ALL!   Wayne and I have had a tradition for many years on Valentine's Day, and on our Wedding Anniversary -- Wayne is so thoughtful and always gives me a gift that has a feminine flair!   The little tradition involves something Wayne found years ago, and between special days, it has a spot in our storage cabinet.    He gets up earlier than I do, and has it all set up and lighted!   A fun TRADITION ! !  Anita took pictures of it. We tried a black background, and a white one, so I'll put both on.  As you can see, it has a cord, and when plugged in, the roses have a light inside!  A simple thing, but it is a  TRADITION! ! These photos below are not in any particular order!  Us, our parents, a...
