While it has been many years since we have seen Sheila and Dave, we were friends from the start. We were at their wedding on August 30, 1969 and on September 20, 1969 my wife Connie and I were married. If I remember correctly there were others of our group that were also married around the same time. That was our time and for the next 50 plus years, it was our time, creating our families and living our lives together. Even though over the years our contacts were few, we do miss Sheila and wonder, how in the world did she ever put up with Dave, sometimes there are only questions and no answers. Marriage is one of the most amazing gifts we could ever receive from our Creator. I know Dave and Sheila valued theirs.
