    Wow I was googling myself(I know true nerdy)to find one of my articles to show someone and came across this. Always good to get some feedback as a writer. Those two wrote the story honestly, very nice genuine people. Some interesting facts got cut out of the story though. They actually had to get married 4 times because either the military or the country wouldn't recognize the authority that had married them previously. Their last marriage was in 1959 in a catholic church after they had their 3 children. They had a waiver of some type. Both of them still do a lot of volunteer work it is amazing.
