FORTY EIGHT YEARS AGO TODAY
Trudy and I were married on stage after the Friday night show on the Hamid-Morton Circus, in Trenton NJ, in 1959.
THE VOWS
And we did a ten o'clock show the next morning!
THE BRIDE AND GROOM
WEDDING WALTZ
"Oh how we danced on the night we were wed,,,, we vowed our true love, though a word wasn't said. The world was in bloom, there were stars in the sky,,,,except for the few, that were there in your eyes.... Dear as I held you so close in my arms, angels were singing a hymn to your charms. My heart gently beating was murmuring low:::: My Darling I Love You So.”
This waltz wasn't easy because I'm really not much of a dancer. What saved me was the fact that my feet weren't touching the floor anyway.
GUEST OF HONOR, FATHER ED SULLIVAN
Actually we had two guests of honor, Father Ed who of course was a Catholic Priest, & Reverend Harold Myers, who was Pastor of the Presbyterian Church I attended as a youngster in Ohio, and if that isn't spreading it out enough, we were married by a Methodist Minister.

Hi Bill & Trudy
Boy, did I ever slip up. Forgot the date completely and I was there for the occasion. I could see Dad in one of the pictures and I think the top of Mother'shead.
As I recall the cats roared when the minister pronounced you Man and Wife. Almost like they were on cue.
Anyway Happy Anniversary from Brother Bob in Tennessee!
