Happy 88th Birthday to My Bill!





Today is the 88th birthday of my best friend, companion, partner and now husband for the past fifty-two years.  

I compiled this slide show of some of the hundreds of photos I have of Bill.  Starting with Bill as a five year old rascal, the youngest of three (two older sisters), and ending with Bill teasing my Mother.  

This slide show will give you an idea of what I've been living with for the past fifty-two years.  It's all good folks.  Well, most of the time anyway.

Happy birthday Bill! You'll outlive us all!

Lovely, and very touching.

A very moving, respectful and poignant montage, Ron. Bill himself has every reason to be proud at what you've achieved. And (I've got to ask) was your choice of music - or at least its title - a conscious nod to your recent travels? Maybe not, unless it was a subconscious happenstance.

Ray,
Maple 🍁 Leaf Rag? Pure coincidence Ray.

Yes, it would hardly have been an appropriate gesture to your dear Bill, would it?

Thanks Melissa. I'll convey your wishes to Bill.

Ray,
Bill liked the music. He wouldn't get the connection anyway.

Ron, I don't know how I missed this post, but I'm glad I caught it now. Great video - and a very happy birthday to Bill. I always thoroughly enjoy the photos and video clips.
And, of course, I liked the music!

One more thing - - I just remembered that my father's birthday was September 26. If he lived, he would have been 95, can you imagine that??
