Bruce & Pat celebrated 60 years of marriage today. This is one of the greatest love stories we've been able to watch. Pat has had Alzheimer's for several year but despite her disease, Bruce is at her side constantly and remains totally in love with her. Bruce is always very sweet and tender with her. And Pat still has her fabulous sense of humor and has us always laughing. Tonight Pat had nice moments where she was able to remember. Today was a wonderful celebration of 60 great years as all of their children, spouses, grandchildren and great grandchildren gathered to honor this landmark occasion. We had a wonderful dinner. We then played a fun family trivia game that had everyone laughing and remembering wonderful years together. The evening concluded with a beautiful slide show of Bruce & Pat's life together. It was the perfect evening. We even comment that we enjoyed the 60th Anniversary celebration better than the 50th. Thanks everyone for making the effort to be together!

These are pictures of all the people that attended the anniversary party. We were only missing a few. The next morning we spent several hours with Bruce and Pat. It amazed us how Pat kept commenting what a fun party we had last night. She must have asked me several times if I had fun at the party. What a tender mercy that she was so clear for this special celebration.

Thanks for posting all those family group shots. I picked them all up and posted them so they will be available when it is time to do my blog book :)
