Our 21st Anniversary

On November 17, 1984, almost 21 years ago, Nelda S. Fox and I were married in North Stonington, CT by Rev. Lynn Holden. Nelda was a young, gorgeous, vivacious woman of 46, and I was a mere boy of 51. As you can see by the photo, I was also a few pounds lighter and had more hair.

The past 21 years have been the best of my life. Each year gets better, if that is possible. The love and respect that seemed to be at it's peak when we married, has not diminished but grown.

We have been through some trying times with my health issues, but Nelda has never retired from her constant vigil of my concerns, and those of her family and friends. She is, without a doubt, the most beautiful, capable, intelligent, caring, and gracious person I have ever met.

Our life together has been what all men and women would hope for. There are no limits on the praise that I can address to Nelda as she is as near perfect a wife as any man would hope to find in his lifetime.
