We Married

(see PHOTOS below)

 

On April 22, 1967, less than a year after first laying eyes on one another, we were married.  In April 2007 we took a cruise back to Bermuda to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary.

 

John and I were married for six years before even thinking about have a family.    Our whirlwind of a courtship leading to marriage was so brief, we needed those six years to get to know one another.   We first lived in a one-bedroom apartment, and four years later we bought a beautiful four-bedroom townhouse in Etobicoke.  John worked as a printer, working 12-hour shifts, either all day or all night.   I worked in an office setting, and thoroughly enjoyed my job.  Life was good.

 

We enjoyed having friends over for the evening, or visiting with them.  We liked to go out for a movie, and out for dinner often.  Much of our social life revolved around our church fellowship – and frequently we were asked to provide a musical item at various church settings.   John was an excellent guitarist, and he would accompany my vocal solos.  Our life was simple, laid back, and extremely happy.  We became the best of friends.
