Today marks my parents' wedding anniversary—a beautiful day to celebrate their love for each other. Wishing them a heavenly anniversary!
Recently, my brother shared this treasured photo from 1966, capturing them heading out to a special event. In the picture, Mom wore her crystal necklace, a cherished heirloom that I now enjoy wearing.
The photo triggered a flood of memories, one of which had slipped from my mind. In the background, the bookcase proudly displayed our array of Christmas cards. I fondly recall spending hours reading each card, and my brother shared the same recollection.
In the face of her battle with Parkinson's, Mom exhibited incredible strength, holding on until the very day of their wedding anniversary. It was a poignant and fitting departure, a testament to the enduring bond they shared. Her passing didn't surprise any of us, but it only deepened the significance of this special day.
