[QUOTE="Voyageur, post: 1032048, member: 17953"] My Cousin died back in 1986. His wife died less than 2 months ago. They were close to my wife and I. She was a great catch for him. They met, during the summer between his junior and senior year, at a party that the college head coach held at his home. She didn't even like football. When he asked her to dance, and they were on the floor, she asked him; "Who are you?" He told her. She hesitated for a moment then asked; "How do you know the coach and his family?" She obviously was not a football fan. When he told her, she wasn't the slightest bit impressed. They ended up getting married shortly after graduation, and the entire group of guys who were part of the wedding party were members of the football team, many of whom were on their way to the NFL. It was a huge event in the city, and there were reporters everywhere, asking questions, and taking pics. Since we were part of the family, one reporter latched on to me, and my wife and he asked me who I was. I looked at him dead seriously and said; "His parole officer. I'm here to make sure he doesn't drink anything at the reception." He just looked at me, stunned. "Can I print that he?," he asked. "Hell no!" I said. "Don't you know a joke when you hear one!" Then we walked away. I'm afraid I've never been one who could pass on an opportunity to do something offbeat. Life wouldn't be any fun unless you enjoyed it. By the way, Susan never remarried. They meant that much to each other. After she passed, their Son said to me; "They're together again. It's how they always wanted it to be." I just agreed with him, and said I understood. My wife and I not too long ago celebrated our 59th anniversary together, and I wouldn't trade it for anything. Sometimes the vow about forever means something special. It did for them, and for us. We miss them both so much. [/QUOTE]
