On this day in 1971 on Pass-a-Grille Beach, we became officially engaged to be married with a diamond ring as an outward sign. We both still had two more years of college studies at different schools before graduation but with Karen’s parents’ announcement that they were preparing to move from Florida to Ohio, we thought it wise to let our families and the rest of the world know the level of our commitment. In the 43 years since we’ll always made a practice of celebrating the day, often with a walk on the beach. Today we are celebrating by spending time with family in Toledo this morning and in Dayton this evening.
Blessings!
Love ya!
Happy “Engagement Anniversary”
Love,
Art & Lynn
