Hard to believe but yes it is 55 years today since we made that commitment to one-another.
Fifty-five years of love, fun, trauma, pain and everything in-between.
Not forgetting two wonderful children and two Grandchildren.
By God's Grace we live a happy, fulfilled and busy life, thankful for each day.
The words in my card to Alan are very apt.
It seems like only yesterday
I heard you say 'I do'
We held each other's hand
And promised to be true
It seems like only yesterday
I gladly gave my heart
And vowed whatever life may bring
From you I'd never part
And here we are upon this day (55 years)
So much time has passed
Who could have known back then
The love we'd found would last
And last it has and what is more
It's grown with each new day
You've filled my life with memories sweet
That will not fade away
So thank you for the years of love
We've shared and we share still
I loved you when at first we met
And I always will
and Alan's card to me
It certainly has not all been easy but certainly worth while

Fifty-five years is no accident! Happy Anniversary! Many blessings to you both...
Marriage is never easy and you two have managed it for over half a century which speaks volumes about your patience, loyalty and faith I think. Congratulations to you both; you are an inspiration.
Happy anniversary to you and your husband. It's a great testimony that you are celebrating the years together when so many never get to this point. Wishing you two many more years of joy and God's grace together.

Congratulations! You were a beautiful bride and your husband a handsome groom.
Time and space cease to exist in love. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 2015. God bless you and all around you.
Oh, Barbara, what a precious event to commemorate. Many congratulations to you and Alan. What treasures of memories you've collected. God bless you both!
Congratulations Barbara and Alan. You are such an inspiration. Marriage is not always easy, but commitment to one another means so much more now that we are getting older. We celebrated our 45th Anniversary in November.
Merry Christmas from Canada.
