Happy 66th Anniversary
« on: November 23, 2007, 10:26:10 PM »

My folks just celebrated their 66th wedding anniversary!  :-* Got married just before Pearl Harbor, dad went into the navy for the duration and my mom went to the west coast to help build baby flat top carriers for the duration also. They are still living at home and doing pretty good, 91 and 92! They are two great people and the best part is, they are Harley folks!!

Here's a picture of them on Dad's 1938, 61ci Knuckle head taken sometime in 1940. They rode it, except during the war, up through 1953.

Yeah, print this thread and give it to them in a card from CVOHarley.  Here's to your 1st 66 years of marriage!  I'd love to here the riding stories!  Congratulations!

That's a great idea. Going over there later today so I'll get the printer going. They really are an inspiration! Can't tell you how many things we've learned from them, particularly how to live so long!!  :orange:

My grandmother just turned 91 this Nov. and still likes to go for a ride, as long as it's a day or two before she gets her hair done.  ;D
Tell them Happy Anniversary for me.  :2vrolijk_21:

Thanks everyone!!! I've printed all these off and will take them over soon. They live pretty close to us fortunately. They get a real charge out of hearing things from this forum.  :2vrolijk_21:

Boy Mr Magoo, grandma still takes a ride at 91, how great that is.  :orange:

Thanks again for all the congrats! I'll pass along their comments.
