Our love story began on May 23, 1975, and has been growing more resilient with each passing day. We started our family with the arrival of our first child in December 1976, and we're now proud parents of four children, 15 grandchildren, and 1 great-grandson. Each year together has deepened our love, and I'm thankful to have him as my partner in life. We've built a life filled with love, laughter, and adventure, and we're grateful for every moment.

The combination of hard work and love has enabled our relationship to flourish with each passing day.
