When they were both in Junior High, Sally and Jack would meet
They never guessed someday they'd date, and life would be so sweet
A senior high romance they'd have, then Jack would graduate
And three plus years they planned before they'd see their wedding date
In the beginning, they'd have laughed if anyone had told
That 49 years was a blink, and was so close to gold
He'd graduate from college, Jack was youth pastor at church
This was his first position, his preacher had done the search
They found this one was not for them, no matter what the case
When they left Buffalo, New York, they'd find a warmer place
A slip on ice turned tragic, lost their baby to the cold
But God gave them more children, which made them richer than gold
So, then they moved to Florida, Orlando area
Their newborn, Jared made parents of Jack and Sally Law
Next Aaron, then Adam was born, a happy family
And Sally learned that she would lose ability to see
Their devotion and love are reasons they will Never fold
Love measured by commitment is more beautiful than gold
The boys grew up and Aaron would take Crystal for his bride
And kids, Joshua, the twins, Caleb and Tyler by their side
Then Esther Grace went with the angels as they left this earth
Next came Sophia, granddaughter, a welcomed first girl birth
But they'll reach 50, long before the time that they get old
God brought them both this far, of course He'll carry them to gold
Now Adam has Nichole, yet we don't know what is their plan
And Sally still is mesmerized by Jack, her loving man
We wish them both a Very Happy Anniversary
And we all know they have the kind of love that's meant to be
So, next year's Half a Century, with love that they behold
Congrats to our Sally and Jack, Next Year will be Pure GOLD
