40 Years Ago, In The Summer Of '69
On the afternoon of August 3rd, 1969, one of the hottest, most humid Sundays ever in the Sandhills of NC, Keith and I were married in Roseland UMC by the Reverend Green.
And there was no air conditioning in the church--whoa!
So we got off to a steamy start!
My college (Sandhills Community College) girlfriends were my honor bridesmaids. My sister Christy, Keith's sister Jeannie, and my childhood friend Linda were bridesmaids. Another friend from college, Helen, was my Matron of Honor. Jim Maness was Keith's Best Man and Joe Biggerstaff was an usher, both college buddies. Another Sandhills CC friend, Felton Smith, played the organ, and he was excellent:)
This photo was taken the previous evening at the home of my Aunt Gala and Uncle Cliff who so graciously and generously hosted our Rehearsal/Reception party. It was a fun night, and I recall having a terrible case of giggles all evening!
God has blessed us abundantly through the years:) We have 3 great children, Cameron, Seth, and Skye, and a dear daughter in law Kelley (married to Seth). Cameron's girlfriend Holly is a special part of our family as well.
Happy Anniversary Keith:) I pray we'll have 40 more years of health, happiness, and laughs:)
