the .opportunity to celebrate a
55th wedding anniversary. Today
we, your children and your , chit.
dren's children are. most happy
to do so. Mere words cannot ex-
press adequately our joy in your
long and happy married life. We
can never thank you enough for
giving us the gift of life and
bringing us up in the nurture and
admonition of the Lord. No
doubt as children will, we some-
times rebelled but as we grew
older and more mature it was
easy enough to see that Father
did know :best and the things we
learned at Mother's knee sound
instruction and beneficial for our
future. Many a change has taken
Place since you two were wed and
we are sure you could tell many
an interesting tale.
One thing you didn't know .55
years ago, •that this day we would
be celebrating -here. When all ral-
ly round we make quite a family
crowd. And you can bet we're
proud and happy to be here.
IN we should search both far
and near dor finer folk or friend
more dear, all trails would lead.
us home to Dad .and Mother. So.
while we all are here we would
like to say a prayer for the ones
who made it possible this happy
time to share.
May God's blessing rest upon
you; may you have good health
and cheer; may the • Good Lord
watch between us whether far
apart or near; may you have
more anniversaries, each one bet-
ter than before, and we will all
gather round you -to wish you
many more. -
