Happy anniversary, Dad and Sally

Twenty-nine years ago today, my dad married Sally McAdoo, a vivacious Tennessee woman. A real southern lady!
Dad and Sally have now been married longer than my parents.

Sally is different from my mother in many ways, but she is the same in her devotion to my father. They are in a challenging time of life and a unique situation. Earlier this year Sally moved to Dad's assisted living facility so she could be near him.

Rarely a day goes by that Sally doesn't share a meal and watch TV with Dad. She keeps tabs on his overall health. Perhaps it isn't what they'd have chosen for this stage of life, but they are thankful to live in a safe and caring environment.

Happy 29th anniversary, Dad and Sally. Thank you for showing us how to continue loving each other late in life.
