We started dating 55 years ago. I was 14 and Mark was 16. We will be married 49 years in August. Two kids, 4 grandkids still madly in love!
You decide who wins $20,000 and appears in Variety magazine as America’s Favorite Couple
A couple of teenage age girls walking to the theater and a couple of teenage boys dragging main st. One look was all it took. My best friend was dating his best friend and they introduced us a week later. The rest is history!
What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?I lived on prison grounds in Canon City, CO. My father was anassociate warden. Late one night Mark got locked in our bathroom and my mom told him to crawl out the window we would fix door the next day. Unfortunately we forgot about the tower guards that were outside our house. As we ran around the corner of the house we saw 16 yr old Mark spread eagle against our house with the spotlight and armed guard yelling at him to freeze. I said don’t shoot it’s my boyfriend. The guard had me wake my dad.
What would you do with $20,000?Take all our kids and grandkids to Hawaii for our 50th wedding next summer❤️
