In the Beginning...

Here we are on our wedding day in June of 1991.  Excitement and joy filled the day and the future was a promise of wonderful things yet to come.  Little did we know then, these two happy people, what else the future had in store.

We moved into new homes, had a beautiful daughter and a handsome son.  We went on vacations, fishing, and camping.  We had the "Woodfest" at our farm.  There were birthdays, Christmas' and New Years to be celebrated.  We were normal; like any other family. Then, in the blink of an eye in 2004, we found that our little world would never be the same.

Sometimes I wonder what our lives would have been like without the specter of cancer hanging over us.  Then again, I would never know that I married Superman and watch his incredible strength rise to meet each battle.  He would never know the warrior he married inside the woman he loves.  Dana and Dan would have never known the strength they have shown to succeed in the face of adversity.

They say things happen for a reason and that God has a plan.  I'm just grateful that plan included more time for Denny.  As a family, we embrace 2014 and are happy to enter this new year together.  Thank you for being with us every step of the way.  We wish you joy, health and happiness always.
