This Adorable Couple Forged True Love that Lasted a Lifetime

This adorable couple is my maternal Grandmother and Granddad.

They met in the Spring of 1939 when my Granddad was on a date with her older sister. These two started dating soon after.

They got married in Reno, Nevada in December of 1941, one week after Pearl Harbor.

They went on to raise 6 children. They have 29 grandchildren, 59 great-grandchildren (if my accounting is accurate), and 1 great-great-grandchild.
Aren’t they a cute couple? Scanned by: @lindylifferth. Photo circa 1943, when my grandfather was a welder in the navy. ~shared by @hellobridgett
