Hi Debi,
I'm sooooo sorry I missed this poem. I had meant to review it Sunday and then it got buried. Oh my gosh, this is such a well written poem. You can tell you love the subject, lol. Seriously, you could have won a contest with this one. It's well written, personable and unique. You reached all my emotions with this post and I'm so very sorry I missed it. Consider it a 6!!!!

Love and hugs,
Rhonda

What a tremendous salute and history lesson of sally and Jack as they greet this forty-ninth anniversary. They are the example of endurance of love and faith which we all wish to emulate. Beautiful.

Hi Debi,
My wife and I will celebrate our 50th next September 13th. We share our wedding year (1975) with Sally & Jack. They are quite a team, aren't they? Jack is Sally's hero, deservedly so. They support each other.
Nicely penned! So good of you to put their story into rhyme.
Hugs,
Kimbob

I just read Sally's poem for Jack. 49 years is quite a testament to their love and devotion to each other. Your poem shined a light on the fact that life has its ups and downs and celebrations and heartbreaks. Great poem. Gretchen

    Hi Gretchen, yes, it was hard to write in about the deaths of babies for me, but she wanted to give them attention. So it was important to Sally and I understood that.

    I thank you so very much for the lovely as always review and kind words to go with it for our Sally and Jack and their poem. I appreciate it so very much, my dear friend. Lotsa love, Debi

Great artwork and nice presentation, Debi. You put a lot of work into the poem, photos, and videos. You always do a great job putting facts into a poetic form with rhyme. A good opening verse about how they met. If I was in Buffalo, I'd go somewhere warmer, too. I am sorry about the difficult situations in their lives, but there is also love and joy. Reaching the Golden Anniversary is an amazing accomplishment. Congratulations, Sally and Jack, on reaching that milestone in the New Year. Thanks for sharing everything, Debi, and Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to everyone.

So then, Debi.
I no sooner review one of your celebratory tribute poems than I get another.
You know, it is a fact that one can only give so many superlatives before I run out of things to say LOL.
Once again an excellent selection of songs to compliment the wonderful words.

One of your very best...

Such finesse with every line fourteen syllables and impeccably rhymed!

We adore Sally, of courses COURSE!

SHE is so deserving of this loving, comprehensive, verse!

Take a bow DPM.

Bravo!

    This shows you how behind I am that I even have most appreciated six stars that get shuffled in with the new ones and lost, but never forgotten. So thank you so for this beautiful review and for all the sweet words. I know for a fact that Sally appreciated it too. Love you dearly and thank you again!! Love, Debi

Well sis, I don't know if I've ever heard of a merry-go-rhyme poem before. Thanks for the explanation of what needed to be done, now I know you did it perfectly. I know Jack and Sally and all their family appreciate the kindness that you've shown them in this wonderful celebration of their great life together. I pastored for10 years in Orlando and I may have been close to them but certainly would not have known it. Thanks again for constantly giving us new insight into our FanStory family.
