Wayne & Karen Celebrate Gold

Karen and Wayne in 1964,

Civil Rights, Muhammed Ali,

Escalation of the Viet Nam war.

The Saint Louis Cardinals beat the New York Yankees.

Wedding bells and now we wonder.

Estimations and Calculation;

Projecting - budgeting over and under; 

Counting, funding, machination;

Decades of spreadsheets and a little bit of grief.

A ladder to heaven falling back to earth;

Goodwill and unfailing belief;

Effort of a man unmeasured by net worth.

Always, Forever - In God we trust;

With memories of the Past,

We look forward, as we must.

Churches, community, friends -  family first and last.

Traps, trouble, putts per round and more;

Golf is life and he’ll tell you his game is on the mend.

A toast, Fifty years - To the love, to you and yours.

To the one only Wayne and the incomparable Karen.
