Visiting with Mom this evening. She was in good spirits and way talkative. She had summonsed me over there this evening. To my surprise she presented me with my grandmothers original engagement ring and wedding band and the gold cross my grandfather gave to my grandma as a graduation gift. WOW so beautiful, and knowing he only made $7 a week. No telling how long he had to save to buy these items.
I am thankful to have these symbols of their young love a love that lasted
61 yrs til his death. I could only hope to ever find a love like this. Doesn't seem like people have that kind of staying power these days.
