Hi! Frecklegirl Pam

I'm going to let you into a secret and you must promise not to tell anyone else because I'm so very protective of it.

When I left the army in 1945 at war end, I was broke except for the army civie outfit and a paltry discharge pay. Well to cut a long story short, my dear Alice and I couldn't wait to get wed, so we braved it.We couldn't afford a ring of gold though we cast envious eyes on them, so we settled for Woolworth's store where they sold wedding rings for 1 shilling and nine pence - about one tenth of a US dollar. It looked like gold but I believe it was brass and if I'm not mistaken a curtain ring.

Well, the minister looked at it with amazement but he blessed it and I put it on her finger and it remained there till the day the Lord decided to take her from me. As the world became more prosperous, I was in a position to buy her a real gold one at last. It's one of the rare occasions when I've seen her really angry, "This is not coming off, as for that thing it can stay where it is." and that was the end of that. If pictures were allowed I'd post a picture of it, because it hangs on her framed photo to this very day. 57 years of blissful memories. What price love! Praise the Lord and all glory to Him.

My prayers are with you and Brad and may God bless your union as abundantly as He did mine.

God bless you brother and sister in our joint walk in Christ. 

Love in Christ Jesus.

I hope things are going better now with the hubby's exwife, Mrs. Freckle Girl Pam!  That whole scenario is a just plain tough.  I'm glad God has given you two each other to help each other deal with this difficult situation.  It's so neat that when I looked on this board, both yours and Samson's posts for prayer were right next to one another.   :) :) :)  We're praying for you both!

Roy, your post brought me to tears.  Your wife sounds like a truly lovely lady.  The wonderful remembrances you have of her are very inspiring.  You had the proverbial match made in heaven it seems and I thank you for that beautiful story. 

Love in Christ,
Vangie
