36 years married to the same man!

36 years married to the same man! - 11/29/99 05:11 AM

Our romance began in a high school parking lot where our cars always were parked side by side. It continued after we went off to college and on the 29th of November Jerry and I will have been married for 36 years.

We often laugh and say that God must have given us the gift of long suffering but we both know that it is because of God we are celebrating life together still. We have asked Him to be the third party since the beginning.

So, thanks for all the memories..Jerry.

More than yesterday but less than tomorrow, I Love You
Derith

Congratulations, Derith and Jerry. My wife and I met in high school also, 23 years ago. November 29th is special to us too, so I guess we'll always remember your anniversary! Congrats again, and here's to another 36!

Happy Anniversary Derith & Jerry! It's nice to see people stay together in this world. Lorna and I have been married for 31 years. I'm sorry to say most of my friends that married around the same time as us have been divorced for years. I guess you just have to find the right person to make it last.

I'd like to add my congratulations to you both too Derith and Jerry. That many years together in marriage is truly one of God's miracles.

Like St. John, I thank you Jerry for sharing Derith with us.
