Toasting "TOGETHER" -Happy 50th Anniversary Mom and Dad Rigby

Together…. 

Together is such a nice word.  Together for 50 years that is now deemed unique and almost impossible, but these two pulled it off.  Funny how life changes, but for these two they grew and changed and remained the same with the passing of the seasons holding onto their belief in God and in each other.

Their love brought me my best friend, husband, and father of our five children.  I toast their “TOGETHER” tonight.  I think of them fifty years ago- young and in love and without many pennies to their name.

  They have experienced ups, downs, and everything in between.  I am grateful they didn’t give up… they didn’t quit.  That example has taught me so much- and to think it all started with a box of cherry chocolates.

Happy 50th Anniversary to the two people I genuinely and with great love call mom and dad- what a blessing of strength, security, and steadfastness you have been to me.  I am overwhelmed and ever grateful to be your daughter.
 Happy 50th Anniversary. 

Love Always,

Amyanne
