Last sat. was a milestone in the life of my parents--- they celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary.
Fifty years equals a lifetime of joys and sorrows that they have shared together and is an accomplishment that is somewhat
rare for this day and age. The night was bittersweet with the thought of Mom's cancer lingering like an elephant in the living room. On the day of their 49th anniversary they found out she had cancer so making it to the 50th anniversary was an uncertainty over the trials of the past year. Chemo therapy is brutal and made planning anything special to mark the occasion problematic as she has good days and bad and it is hard to know when the bad days will lay her down. Fortunately
she was having a better day and was able to keep a good spirit and we celebrated as family will with love and laughter.
I share this because life is precious and brief and we should all remember to cherish the ones we love.
I love you Mom and Dad.
Love your family,
Danny Dring
