Well we are lucky, we've only been married 7 years in June. Both lost our previous spouses, mine with cancer, Toms wife with an overnight heart attack. We are going up in anniversaries at a ratio of 5 to 1 so that we may get a golden anniversary in, currently reaching 35th, reckon that's the only way we'll get it. We say we have 91 years of marriage between us. Tom 43, me 41 and us 7 = 91 years. :-) Life is now being very good to us! Your anonymous friend, with the strange name of Grace/Beth/Barbara
