Happy Wedding Anniversary



Exactly, twenty-one years ago this very day
On the hushed, whispering shores of Lake Tahoe,
I walked my Princess, down the aisle and gave her away.
In that lush garden of the sun, you two, became one!

Under that white gazebo, so utterly sparkling, 
When time seemed to stand virtually still,
I saw my stunning daughter, my darling,
Become a wife, against a backdrop of Lake Tahoe’s hills.

Your touching sapphire days together were still ahead,
Thank you, Butch for being the true, love of her life.
Then, a few years later, baby Eddie, cooed in his bed.
You two, by far, are the perfect husband and wife.

May all things beautiful come your way.
You both cared for me and keep me part of your life
And your big dream, that your son in the MLB, one day, shall play!
God bless you with all the very best and free from strife.


                      Tribute to Elena and Butch
                     Blessed Anniversary Wishes
                             With love, Mom

You are sweet, Prince! Having a great family is better than winning at Powerball!! Money cannot supersede a loving family, can it! Not a chance! A family is soul to soul. Thank you for the blessings. Elena is reading the comments. She just brought me a fresh cop of coffee. Grateful to God, Pangie
