Happy 35th Anniversary

35 years ago today at 2:00 p.m. at the Broken Arrow, Oklahoma Church of Christ, Debrorah Faye Ellis became my wife. What a great day that was. It was 108 degrees outside and felt like 150 degrees in my white tux. It was so hot, when they threw rice at us, it started cooking when it hit the pavement.

I will never forget the first time I saw Debbie as she walked into the church auditorium in her beautiful wedding dress. My eyes teared up because of her beauty.

Our good friend Kent Hall the Education Minister for the congregation married us on that hot summer day.

Many things rush through my mind as I look back on 35 years.......

But the one thing that I can truly say is that I did marry the most beautiful and wonderful woman in all the world. My best friend.  

I wish we could be together today to celebrate, but the granddaughter needs you!

Love you!

A Fun Saturday in SE Kansas

Our good college friend Kim Whaley from Lincoln, Nebraska came for a weekend visit.  We took a day trip to several SE Kansas and NE Oklahoma attractions.  Big Brutus, Oswego Riverside Park, Route 66 in Commerce, Twin Bridges State Park and Rainbow Bridge in Baxter Springs on Route 66.  Then we ended the day with dinner in Pittsburg at Chicken Annies.

Praying for Peace

My son is a police officer in Fort Worth.  The entire Dallas community has experienced a tragedy.  The hate must stop.  This is a picture last year when we paid our respects at the Fort Worth Police Memorial.
