This is where YOU tell us YOUR love stories! You know, like how you met your honey… how you found true love after all this time… or maybe even how you finally got back together with the one that got away. You get the idea – whatever your "happily ever after" is, we wanna hear it!!!
This week’s story is from Peggy who writes…
Dear Kix,
On February 4th, our family celebrated our parents’ 60th wedding anniversary!
Gene and Marlene were two young kids from a small town in Maine called Mechanic Falls. They fell in love as classmates and have never wavered since. They left that little town for Biloxi, Mississippi, newly married, expecting my oldest brother, and heading to the Air Force. They were so brave to leave their family and set out on their own.
Through the years they have exemplified their vows – for richer or poorer, in sickness and health. They had many ups and downs but always were true role models of unconditional love, compassion and family values.
Now my two brothers, sister and I have given them 12 grandchildren and two great grandchildren. We celebrated their anniversary with immense gratitude for them showing us what true love is all about.
Side note, my dad is a life-long listener of country music and your songs.
Thank you for providing this venue for telling my mom and dad’s true love story. We think they’re pretty amazing!
Signed,
Mark and Peggy Clements
30 years married
Gorham, Maine
