No words can express my feelings after reading this. Your words made it a golden moment sparkling with jewels.

This is particularly poignant for me as well as I was part of one of the "other two couples" at that dinner. In fact, I have a copy of this picture framed in my home. This was indeed a golden moment in time, a moment to be treasured in our collective memories!

Friends/family members are treasures more valuable than gold!

What grand memories you've had and what even grander golden moments you're going to miss with John. You're right, we spend too little time with our beloved friends and family. I'm so sorry for your loss. Kathe

Thanks for the story about John, Carol. We think we will always remember all the details of special people and special times, but as I get older I'm finding that was a silly thing to think! Write them all down! Karen, El Dorado, KS
