February 19, 1977 - one of the happiest days of our lives as God joined our two lives into one ("the two shall become one flesh")and we gave each other a ring that represents our love without any end, a forever love, and we said we would be together "'til death do us part."
February 19, 2002 - another happy day as we celebrated 25 years together on an anniversary trip given to us by our children, friends and family, and we renewed our commitment to each other with a ring saying we would be together and love each other forever.
February 19, 2012 - Today, on our 35th anniversary, as death indeed has parted us physically, I renew that commitment to love you forever, knowing that our parting is only temporary because we will be together again for eternity. Today I wear the rings you gave me as well as the ring I gave you which represent our forever love. And as you told me in a letter you wrote me 35 years ago: "I do love you very much and want you to be with me forever. With Jesus we will be together forever and He's the One who makes our lives together worth living."
