We got married young after knowing each other only 6 months and we just celebrated 50 years. We listen, love and support each other.
Help us share our love story in Variety, take home $20,000, and go on a triple date with Jeff & Emilie Goldblum and Charlie Day & Mary Elizabeth Ellis!
Rhonda and her family were new to our town and my mom asked me to ask her dad if their family could come for dinner on Saturday evening. That was when we first met and there was chemistry. That was in December 1975.
What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?When we both grew up, our families didn’t really take vacations. So when we had children, that was one thing that we really tried to do as much of as we could. So we took trips to Colorado, Florida, Arizona, Wisconsin, and Arkansas. But we went multiple times to several of these places.
What would you do with $20,000?Last year was pretty rough for us because Mark had two major surgeries and was diagnosed with kidney cancer. So we have bills to pay and as senior citizens it’s rough so that’s initially where that money would go.
