2007
Then there fourteen............................Amy's family......................................
Melinda's family..........................................
On Sunday, June 19th, 1960, Edward and I were married and began life together. He was a school teacher and I was a nineteen year old bride with much to learn about many things.....cooking, housekeeping, farming.......and as the years past being a mother to two daughters, Melinda and Amy.....

We've had years filled with good times and sad times as well. I can't say we've never had a cross word, as I've heard some people say....but we have always worked it out. We agreed whoever left had to take the children and the bills, neither of us were that brave....Edward told me in the beginning if I went home to Mama, he wasn't coming to get me.....I believed him.

We've tried to honor the Lord with our lives and have a home where love is felt...Edward has been in the ministry for twenty-two years and the rewards are beyond measure.....The good Lord certainly has blessed us abundantly...........

We have eight grandchildren that we love dearly...We are so blessed with a family that puts each other first........As Martha Stewart would say, "to love and be loved by a good man....it's a good thing"...........
