Til Death Us Do Part

I, Angel take you, Jerry, to be my lawfully wedded husband, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, until death do us part.

On July 14, 1991, I said those simple words and meant them. I started dating J on April 3, 1991

Our relationship began with being introduced by a mutual friend. We were engaged 3 weeks after our first date.

6 weeks prior to our first date I had walked away from a long term relationship with someone else. We were warned to not rush into anything and take time getting to know eachother. But I knew he was the one I was meant to be with. July 14 was approaching.

Twenty-two years ago when I was 20 I married my best friend. He's the love of my life and not to sound too sappy my soul mate. We got married on what would of been my mom's 50th birthday. I made my mom part of my day because she could only be there in spirit.

A couple weeks after my wedding the ex tried to get me back by writing a 16 page letter and Leaving it at my job. He didn't know I had got married. I called and thanked him for it. He was crushed.

Our path crossed two more times but I had said goodbye months before. It must of been hard on B seeing me happy with someone else.

Our marriage has been rocky at times but we take our vows seriously. We are committed to eachother. Death will be what eventually seperates us.

My hubby was 31 here and I was 24
