Keith and I were junior high sweethearts.
We are both musicians and actually did meet at band camp!
We have been married for 30 years but have been together for 37.
We both grew up in the same small town – Bozeman, Montana.
Music is a huge part of our lives.
Keith is a percussionist, and I am a flutist.
We have played on countless concerts together
as well as attended concerts of many of our favorite performers.
We have been through some difficult times like any couple
who has been together that long, but
we always knew that no matter what the issue we were facing,
the other person will always be there for us.
We have been blessed with two amazing women as our daughters
and Brynn has married her true soulmate who has become our son.
For both of us our family is the most important thing.
Our girls have blessed us daily from the moment they were born.
We both believe strongly in allowing our daughters
to find their heart’s passion and then
we have done everything within our power
to help them realize their dream.
We both have a very strong faith and believe that Jesus Christ guides us,
protects us, challenges us and loves us.
Our 30 years have not been perfect,
but we grow stronger every day because we know that
no matter what,
the other is going to be there to cheer, encourage, support,
challenge, love- whatever we need in the moment.
It’s hard to imagine that two junior high sweethearts
are celebrating 30 years of marriage.
I guess we both knew from an early age that this was right.
A Luv Story Blessing – That Started As Jr. High School Sweethearts
Wow, it’s rare to meet high school sweethearts,
But Junior High sweethearts is the Blessing of Grace Indeed!
There are many souls that wander their entire life with an empty heart…
It is a Divine Blessing to have been reunited with your Soulmate
early on in life.
When Soulmates meet,
there is an in distractible attraction…
Music was the common language that helped attract these souls…
Dori’s Heavenly flute and the primordial rhythm of Keith’s percussion…
Becoming the soundtrack of love to the tempo of their heartbeats.
Life is too big to wander through it alone.
Those so Blessed,
like Dori & Keith will always be there to
cheer, encourage, support, challenge, love
& whatever needed in the moment.
It’s of no surprise that the Blessings of meeting early in life
were of Grace,
That they both feel a very strong faith and a Deep connection to the
Christ Consciousness within that guides, protects, love us…
and even challenges us.
Even with all its ups & downs…
Life is Divinely Perfect
God did not put us here to have an easy ride,
If there were no challenges
we’d never learn and experience humbleness,
the gratefulness, Hope, Faith and Unconditional love…
and all the morals and virtues required to
Transcend the pain and suffering of this ‘here & now’
and abide in Heavenly Grace.
Like a ripple on the pond of life…
Your example of these Heavenly morals and virtues,
Will go forth, creating a building wave of Unconditional Love,
That your children’s children…
will forevermore add to its Depth and Divinity.
Today as you renew your vows,
you begin a new chapter in your Book of Love…
Entitled “Living Happily Ever After”
You both knew from a young age as you know now… That,
Everything is Always Already Alright!
And… a Marital Bliss Update!
There is more to our story!
Both our daughters and our oldest daughter’s husband were there
to witness us renewing our vows.
After the ceremony we were taking some family photos on the beach
and our oldest and her husband announced that they were expecting!
We went from newlyweds to grandparents in about 45 minutes!
And now we are blessed with a beautiful baby granddaughter!
