You may have heard by now… I had kind of a big weekend. I got married! Her name is Donna and she is a very wonderful lady.

Let me back up a bit. When I lost Gail back in 2018 - I was devastated. We were married for 60 years - together for 65. Losing her was the hardest thing I’ve ever gone through.

In my attempt to “get out more” (everyone kept telling me to do that) I ended up having lunch with a lady that Gail and I had known from “back in the day” as the kids say. That lady was Donna.

She was kind, funny and understanding. And - it occurred to me as time went on - she was pretty darn good looking too! Lunches turned to dinners and, well… you can figure out the rest.

We got married this past Saturday at my house with our combined kids (Six daughters for me, one for her), their husbands, our grandkids (10 in all!) and some of our closest friends cheering us on.

It was a fabulous day - great weather, great food, great music, great people! The only thing that could have made it better would have been a Wedding Night that didn’t require staying 6 away from each other!

To be honest, this is not something I ever imagined happening at this stage of my life (You know, being 49 and all) but I’m so grateful that it did!

See you back here tomorrow!
