True Love

I was puttering around the house trying to get organized and came across my childhood photo album. There I found this great picture, taken in the late '60's of my Grandparents on one of their anniversarys.

They had just left the Amish church, (other wise there wouldn't even be a picture).

Grandma passed in '96, Grandpa joined her in '99. They were married almost 70 years.

How cool is that?

I LOVE stories like that...reaffirms the reward and belief of the commitment made.

They look like a nice couple!

They're so Amish they're cute!!! ;-)

As the old saying goes, you can take the Amish out of the church, you just can't take the church out of the Amish.
