Hey MVB's, we have made number 48. Today 48 years ago we were married and Sylacauga & Comer played Football. I'm almost sure that Sylacauga won but don't remember the score. Anyway, they still play each other and we're still together so I guess we both have stuck it out through thick and thin. Oh by the way, we were married at 7:30, the kick-off was at 7:30 and Ed made it to see the second half of the ball game. Should have known then how this marriage was going to be.FOOTBALL, FOOTBALL, AND MORE FOOTBALL. Our celebration is going to consist of ice cream and a long nap..................Pat and Ed

Congratulations on your 48th anniversary. Not many couples make it that far together, for sure. Comer did lose that game that night. It was Donald's senior year and SHS was loaded with Don Machen, Doug Lewis, Tex Porter and others. There were two former BBC guys playing for SHS that night. A boy named Harris and another one named Fleming. It had rained and there had also been a sink hole close to the north end of the field. The place where the sink hole happened was full of water, like a little pond. I was afraid it was going to fall in again. Mickey Wesson made a diving tackle on a player and it splashed up like he had just dove into Lake Louise...

Congratulations! Y'all are "good people," and I wish you many, many more. Take care and enjoy each other on this great occasion.

Happy anniversary to two of my favorite kinfolk...
I went to that wedding sick as a dog. Comer was supposed to play Sylacauga on Friday but it rained so hard they postponed it till Saturday night.

Who knew that just ten short years later, I'd fall into that trap - er, make the happy matrimonial plunge. If I only knew then what I know now (I'm quoting my wife)...

I don't remember the Harris player, but Wayne Fleming, our Pastor's son, played end for Sylacauga. Good player. Good guy too.
Cubby, you had to be in the eighth or ninth grade then, is that correct?

Wish y'all many, many more anniversaries. Me and Oner will celebrate our 49th the 21st of this month. When I said "I Do", I did, Chipper was born the 22nd of September 1957. Go figger. MVB ES

Thanks all of you. It has been a restful day and we have been well blessed over these past 48 years. We count our blessing and we are looking for more years together to share with all of you. It did rain that Friday night and that is the reason the game was on Saturday night. Ed planned the date so that we could get married, he could see the ballgame and have Thanksgiving at home (He was stationed in California and only had 15 days, then he went back leaving his bride). I was so disappointed when they rescheduled the game for Sat. nite because I wanted to go along with Ed. I'm glad that he made the second half because that was Donald's last ballgame and Ed had not got to see him play all year, also Don's senior year. The next week (our honeymoon) ES & Zona let us borrow their little two room house in Sunnybrook to use as our own. Could not have asked for a better one. My sister Christine (Lathan's mother) would throw rocks on the tin roof every morning and wake us up, like we wanted to be woke up - right. Memories are wonderful.......Thanks again to all of you for the well wishes..........Pat and ED
