Their wedding was in Iran (Persia) in 1943.
Here’s what they’ve got to show for all their years together and what they cherish along with the love they have for God and each other.
Add 15 more to this number for the more accurate count of their legacy which continues to grow.
So raise your glasses and toast to my mom and pop for all these years that God has been faithful to them!
Second through fifth photos were all taken by Jeremy Leffel our photographer and good friend at Andrew and Katie’s wedding.
That is an amazing story!!!!!!! I hope one day to say the same!!!
Happy Anniversary to your mom and pop, Ellen! Raising my coffee mug to them! They are so blessed, and all their offspring are blessed to have them as the head of the family. May God give them even more years together!
What a beautiful legacy – their wedding picture is so great!!!! I am raising my coffee to them this morning Ellen. Have a great day!
Sixty-nine years! Wonderful!!! Congratulations to them with their big, beautiful, genuine smiles! Your Dad looks like he’s a real pistol! I love the headdress on your Mom’s wedding veil. Very regal!!! Great pictures, Ellen!
With joy! So cute!! What a gorgeous couple they make. I wish them many more happy years and what a legacy your family enjoys.

WOW! Happy Anniversary – what a beautiful family your parents have. Do you have a big celebration planned?
Now that’s worth celebrating! It’s such a blessing and encouragement to see long lasting commitment modeled. My parents only made it to 60 when my mom died but my grandparents celebrated 71 years before passing to their reward. Wishing your mom and dad good health and much joy!
May God bless your Mom and Pop and give them yet a few more years together! I love it when you post about them, Ellen!
So very blessed, both of them and all their offspring, for generations!
Beautiful legacy!
