Texican,
I really don't know how to reply to your message but feel that I must.
May God continue to bless you and your wife with good health and good fortune.
Few couples know the joy of a relationship, such as yours, that has lasted so many years.
Thank you from my heart for your service to your country.
Any children, grandchildren, greats? I would really like to know.
I'm amazed by the fact you still work 40 hrs a week.
God willing, the wife and I will be together for many more years too. As I always tell everyone, my wife isn't my better half, she my better 3/4. Great lady and the only woman with enough patience to put up with me for all these years.

Jerry:
My friend, I have three wonderful children, and none have ever been arrested for anything. I have six wonderful grand children (the youngest is 29 and she is in the Air Force in England right now) and two great-grandchildren. The eldest is going on five now. My work now days is mostly mental, that is, I am a project manager-estimator for an electrical contractor. I do some physical work but not much any more. I am the first in the office and the last to leave. I love to work, people that do not like to go to work have ulcers, and I just keep going along. My wife and I both have all of our teeth also. Ha Ha Ha. As to the service I did for our country, I did no more nor no less than these wonderful people are doing for us all right now. Can you imagine having a leg tore off and then going back in the service, and then on to Iraq?? It is just beyond my comprehension.

Good evening and the very best to you and yours.
