    Aww. Mr. Donnie, this one brought tears. My own parents met in a little ol’ mountain church right off 25W. Daddy walked her home down the railroad track and that was that. They were married 62 years when daddy passed. I remember when they were both in the assisted living for a little while together, another oldster asked daddy how in the world he stayed married to the same woman so long and daddy said “I guess I really got lucky”They were poetry in motion. They both walked with The Lord and that was their secret. They could have lasted another 62. 🥰 Very well done, sir!

    Thanks for this. My wife Judy and I met in high school, April 29, 1961, and married in 1966 (fifty-eight years). We have been through a lot of highs and lows. She spent twenty-two years of my twenty-four years in the military taking care of things at home, and that was difficult. As the typical military wife, she gets the credit for raising our three daughters. Hard times and good times is what makes a great, strong marriage. You need to know how to survive the bad things and bring those times up where you can laugh together again. Like your Dad said, when its time to go, you will be together again in a much better place. Amen.

    So glad to see a post from you this morning! Hope this finds you improving by the day! Absolutely loved seeing your parents love story. And I am sure that they are together and loving each other in heaven. Congrats to both you and your wife on the upcoming 50 year celebration. That is awesome! I have a good story about my Granny and Grandaddy. Grandaddy wanted to take Granny out, but she was interested in another fellow. She told Grandaddy that she would go out with him for a dime. That was a lot of money back then. About a month later Grandaddy came up to Granny after church and handed her that dime!! They were married 67 years when Grandaddy passed away. When Granny left us at the ripe old age of 94 she still had that dime, wrapped up in a small piece of tissue paper in her change purse. I have that dime in my firebox, and it will be passed on to my daughter and then her sons. It's worth so much more to us than 10 cents. It's priceless! Hope you have a great weekend and God bless!

    Good morning, Donnie! No need to apologize, it is well worth the wait! Hope you are well on the mend! My parents were married 58 yrs until Mom passed. They were reunited just over 7 yrs later...that was just shy of 3 yrs ago... They went to the same high school, but, didn't know each other. Dad said they'd met at a dance. He saw her setting there with a couple friends, like you said, Donnie, he just knew. Mom said that he really knew how to dance, which she loved herself. They were together all they could which was just on weekends when Mom came home on a bus from the city she worked at. After a year of dating, Mom quit her job in the city and they were wed. My maternal grandmother told me that Dad had come to ask for her hand one Monday morning while Grandma was hanging up the laundry on the line, her dad came up from the barn to see what was going on. Of course permission was given and as they say, the rest is history...♥️🙏

    Oh, Mr. Donnie! What a touching video! Your mama and daddy's love story brought tears to my eyes! I believe the old ways to be the best ways, but I attribute that mostly to a reverence for God that most had back then. He is love. Marriage was His idea to begin with. He's the One who holds it together, and marriage is supposed to represent the relationship between Christ and His bride, the Church. We have kicked Him out of everything. And when people stop reverencing the Lord, they do as they see fit. It breaks my heart to see that weddings have just become parties where everyone gets drunk. They either don't take vows or don't take them seriously. They don't wait for marriage, and the whole thing is just an exercise in futility. Just a party. But most of all, it breaks my heart that people don't see the need to be married anymore. I can only imagine how that makes the Lord feel.

    Donnie it is great to have you back! When I got up the first thing my wife said to me is that Donnie has a new video out! We may be in Buzzard's Bay Massachusetts, but it feels like we're having morning coffee with an old friend!

    Thanks for another good visit. Glad to see you're getting back on your feet, Donnie. You're right when you find the right one, you know it. My Dad was 25 when he met Mom (19) and he was 'thunder struck'. They married 3 months later.

    Good morning, thank you for such a sweet uplifting story and reminder of times when couples truly loved each other. Times were hard, large families, little money and a strong faith strengthened bonds instead of how things are today. My parents were married 55 years before my dad passed ten years ago. Now a days it seems couples give up too easily, divorce, leaving children who are forever affected by it and broken family ties. Thank you friend for a reminder of what true love is, hugs, letters, hard work, a flower from their land not texts, emojis, blocking people and giving up so easily.

    When you are truly in love, you'll know it. It's folks like your parents, Bill, and yourself that are proof of what those Wedding vows and the word of God teaches us. Your Daddy and Momma's love for one another is a true testament to how a marriage lasts. Not only being in love with one another, but when he said being honest with one another. You have to talk to one another to work things out. Not trying to change the other person, respecting one another's ways, and learning how to live with the differences. May God bless you and your wife with many more happy years of marital Bliss! Continued prayers for the healing of your body Donnie and your RUclips channel. Praying and Blessed! 🤗🙏💕 God is good all the time!

    Hi Donnie! I can’t tell you how happy I am to hear your voice and these beautiful stories. I actually got a tear in my eyes hearing from you. How lucky you are to have gotten so many wonderful stories from so many people. I wish I had done that. My parents were married 59 years when I lost my mom in 1995. Growing up I never heard my parents say a bad word to each other and my dad always referred to my mom as mother when he spoke of her. Boy do I miss them. I’m glad you are feeling better Donnie. I pray each night that the Good Lord continues to bless you with continued health and strength. Take care. 😊🙏🏼❤️
