We have compiled a list of “fun” facts about my parents.
We can’t make this stuff up.
In a twisted love triangle,
my dad had just broken up with his girlfriend.
Her mom, coincidentally my mom’s Aunt Ruth suggested that
my dad calls my mom to meet because she would be perfect for him.
At the time she was 16 and he was 19.
He called her from Aunt Ruth’s phone because it was a “local” call
and asked her to a movie.
During their courtship they enjoyed going to the movies and having pizza with
Tina, Sheila and the rest of their siblings.
After a short time Mark, 20 and Lois, 18 decided to marry.
On March 30, 1979, on the way to a tiny white church in Winchester, VA
with their 2 best friends,
they stopped to change into their wedding attire in a gas station bathroom.
Everyone was placing bets on how long the marriage would last.
After years of scrimping and saving,
they finally had a honeymoon for their 25th wedding anniversary
in Cancun, Mexico.
With the odds against them,
Mark and Lois are still winning after 40 ‘looong’ years.

A Luv Story Blessing that Beat All the Odds
The ‘kids’ compiled a list of ‘fun’ facts about your Luv Story…
A story so… against all odds, that they stated that,
‘We just can’t make this stuff up’
:-O
It began – “In a twisted love triangle”
when Mark had just broke up with who would become
his very last every girlfriend…
and soon fell in love with his Soulmate.
Cupid apparently enlisted the help of local call from Aunt Ruth’s place
to fulfill destiny…
As it was meant to be.
There is something about synchronicities that have a ‘Sacredness’ to them…
A feeling that so many random coincidences – had to happen
in order to manifest the union of True Love with Mark & Lois…
This feels like ‘Soulmates’…
It seems like something from within the ‘Ground of our Being’
Silently guides us towards these ‘against all odds’ – coincidences.
Perhaps there is ‘an order’ to the apparent chaos we are surrounded by.
Those that Transcend the chaos
do so by integrating the strengths of significant others.
The combined strengths of your marriage sends the message of Love
Radiating out like a Ripple on a pond,
building in ever expanding circles of Unconditional Love.
By your example of Unconditional Love will go forth forevermore
in the expressions of your Children’s, Children’s Children
Thus, making this world a better place for all Beings…
Unconditionally.
When anyone first gets married… it’s really like ‘Rollin’ the dice’.
Waaay back on March 30, 1979…
Bets were placed on how long the marriage would last.
Well, against all odds and the national statistics
After 40 Looooong years of Marital Bliss,
Mark & Lois are still Winning!
