After thirty-two years together, there is know more fitting symbol then the "Two Turtle Doves". Our LOVE and FAITHFULNESS to one another, grows stronger as everyday passes. Like the "Turtle Doves", from the time they become mated pairs their life together is bound forever.
As we look back over those years, it reminds us of a one of the oldest and best known love poems: "My beloved spake, and said unto me, Rise up my love, my fair one, and come away. For, lo, the winter is past, the rain is over and gone; The flowers appear on the earth; time of the singing of birds is come, and the voice of the turtle is heard in our land" (Song Sol 2:10-12 King James).
As the "Old Man of 2008" passes on the torch to the "New Born Child of 2009", it is time to remember loving family and friends that have touched our lifes. Reflecting back on were we have been, and looking forward to what our future journey holds in store for us all. Each of us will travel into 2009 from a different point in life. Our paths may take us 
in different directions, but the love in our hearts will always keep us close. We wish you all a safe and wonderful New Year, and may the kiss of the New Year bring nothing less then the deepest love and happiness possible.
