“What is the key to a successful marriage?”
“Communication above all else —in my personal experience, our faith in God keeps us grounded, and (our) commitment to love each other each and every day.”
“How did you know your husband was the one?”
“Because I felt differently when I was with him than I had with anyone else, and there was always something that drew us together, whether it was if we had a conflict, he would seek me out if I walked away; and if he walked away, I sought him out. We just always knew that it was supposed to be that way. We’ve been together since we were 17 years old — going on almost 30 years.”
