Happy Birthday, Bob. Like others have said, I have been fortunate to enjoy your posts and stories. Please continue to keep us up on what you are doing and share the memories. I look for your posts each day, always pleasant and informative.
Happy Birthday to you! Finding the right woman to spend your life with is possibly the most important event to enjoy a good life. I'm not quite 80, and when I reach my birthday in June I will have been married to my sweetheart for 57 years. Without her my life would not have been the same and I feel blessed and lucky to have met her. It sounds like your meeting and marrying Nita was the same for you. Enjoy your special day!
I recall watching Johnny Carson interviewing George Burns in his 90s. When Johnny asked Burns if he thought he'd reach 100, Burns said "Yeah, I've got to. I've got a gig!" Happy Birthday!
I printed Proverbs 3:6 and stuck it to my refrigerator along with Psalms 37:4, "Delight thyself also in the LORD, and he shall give you the desires of thine heart". (Love the 'shalls' of scripture).
I am 79 yrs. old and too must say that the LORD has been very good to me throughout my life. Better than I deserve.
