Keith's parents recently celebrated their fiftieth wedding anniversary. What an achievement! They have poured their lives and love into their six children and their sixteen grandchildren. We held a dinner to celebrate the event and Phil got one of their wedding photo's enlarged and framed. He also put their wedding photos into a new and beautiful album. Alan made a moving speech and we were all in tears.
I have had cause to reflect this week about marriage, promises and commitment. When a marriage disintegrates and ends, it is felt endlessly by many many people - the family, friends and others. A strong, healthy and happy marriage leaves a lasting legacy that is hard to quantify, but it is significant. All of us on the Condie Family have benefited from Alan and May's marriage.
