Today, Jan and I celebrate our 49th anniversary. One more year until the Big 5-0. Jan has always been the woman of my dreams. I could never imagine a day without the influence of her grace and wisdom upon my life. As we have traveled together through all the years, from our youth through middle age and now into our senior years, her beauty has only increased in my eyes. Our marriage and its beautiful longevity are a living testament to the power of God’s redeeming love. To Him alone do we give all the glory.
