“And I could recount so many stories of how we got here!! Most are full of real humor….which I think is one of the most important ingredients of our relationship. The other two are we have been real friends (and decided we give marriage a try) and the other is real honesty….when Mel was once asked how did he make it being married to me for 40 years, he answered “well, when I did it, life expectancy wasn’t so long”!
