Sunday afternoon was spent at the Kentwood Community Church to celebrate Ethelyn and Richard’s 50 years of marriage. Personally, I find it remarkable that marriages can last that long especially in this day and age. The idea of growing old together warms my heart and to think of a life that you share and build with someone is what I hope to accomplish in my own marriage someday. Coming back to Ethelyn and Richard, their celebration was filled with friends and family. There was a slideshow playing throughout the day as people came and went of the how it all began and what they built together as a couple as well as what they went through all of those years. What to show for it? 3 children, 9 grandchildren, and 2 great grandkids. 4 generations of living, healthy humans.

Ethelyn and Richard, congratulations for 50 years of marriage!! I love you both!
