And I'm sure we all know the

Just in case some of you
don't remember
I'll tell you, in short, their

They met a few times and
Then went on the first date.
One date lead to two.
Then three, and then four,
Till finally they realized
This had to be forever more.
Soon Ron presented the ring

Whom he wanted for his
wife.
To be married on May 26,
1979.
And to be together for the
rest of their lives.

faith and love
As, Heather, you become

And, to live in peace like
little doves,
Just make sure his bite isn't
worse than his bark!
We wish you both happiness
In your life to come.
We wish you both good times
Laughter and fun.
Have faith in each other.
Give, receive, and share.
Take a little, give a little,
Always being fair.
Spread a little cheer and joy,
Happiness and peace
Smile and sing and make
sure that
Love will never cease.
Thinking of each other
Travel day by day,
Hand in hand, and heart to
heart
All along life's way.

With Ron you will share,
