My Dad would have some wise sayings. At a wedding he'd say, "Remember that in 'Wedding" the "We" comes before the "I". Another was. "Those that don't make mistakes, make nothing". And when he realized my Mom would outlive him, he said to me, "Your Mother's happiness is important to me. Remember that." I admire his commitment to marriage in good times and in bad. - Posted by: Bev Clark (daughter) on: Nov 27, 2020
