My beloved husband of 49 years and 8 months died suddenly last year. He was my best friend for 55 years since we met at the beginning of our junior year in high school, I was 16 and he was 17 and I knew at first sight that he was my prince. 5 years later, in the summer of my senior year in college, we were finally joined as husband and wife. Two weeks later I watched him board a transport plane to California and then Vietnam for one year. He came home safely, Thank you, God, was home for two years and I discovered that I was going to be an Army wife for a long time. He went back for another tour in Vietnam for a year and then we spent 24 years traveling around the states and Europe. I loved being an Army wife. We had planned to repeat our vows on our 50th anniversary and these words are perfect. Sadly, we were at his military internment ceremony at a National Cemetary where he was given full military honors. I selected July 26 for the very reason that if we couldn’t celebrate our 50th anniversary on that special day, we would salute him with a 21 gun salute, folding and presentation of the flag followed by taps. Oh, how I miss him.

The number of years
Iwas trying to type in the number of years we were married, not realizing that this was a rating scale, thats ok, this vow example is very high on my rating scale.
Perfect
