It’s always great to hear about how people met later in life. It sounds like these two have done a great job of blending their families together and the fact that they are known for being “loving” speaks volumes about how they’ve managed to do just that! Thanks for sharing their story, Steve! It’s great to learn more about what makes each couple “tick” and “stick.”
