Daddy while serving in the United States Army. It was during his tour that his brother asked my Mother to write to Daddy. Through their letters they fell in love and were married on December 19, 1945 ... two days after he returned home. They were married for 53 years, and had three daughters. Marjorie, Linda and myself. They'll live forever in our hearts. They left me with the most valuable legacy of all, the ability to love. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
