Ray and Abbie

Here we are, happy as can be, on our wedding day, September 5, 1994.  We were married in Gretchen's Garden at The Presbyterian Church, Bound Brook, NJ.  Our parents were there, and our sons, Selwin and Chuck Briggs were the Best Men.

Nancy's been scanning some old family photos and found this one... 
now I know the reason for my affinity for New Orleans!

 

An inspirational poem which was given to me many years ago, and to which I refer from time to time...

Ronnie shared the following about this poem:
I wrote this poem in 1971 when I was 19.  It was first published in my college yearbook, the 1972 edition of THE IVY, yearbook of Mohawk Valley Community College in Utica, NY... It was printed in Ann Landers' column in 1982 under the heading "Comes the Dawn
." It's picked up quite a few titles along the way, I understand. Abigail Van Buren and Ann Landers have both reprinted it several times since then.
