A New Beginning:

The day that I knew I wanted to be with you for the rest of my life. My dream, as unrealistic as it seemed has finally come true. The man that I loved, loved me in return, with the same passion that I felt. A man who is sexy, smart, and handsome. I will cherish the memories of this day always.

Forever Love,

Linda”
