Just what IS this news, ‘bout Bunny n’ Bob,
That we’re hearing from their daughter, Kris
That the years since their Wedding Day
Have now numbered Sixty and Six.
Reason enough, it seems to us here,
Atop TeeEss' site . . . with a view,
To declare this Their Day – inviting all, near and far
To join-in the praise of this pair’s “I do’s”.

To declare this Their Day – inviting all, near and far
To join-in the praise of this pair’s “I do’s”.
They did so when many here were yet to be born
Yet to start learning the lessons of life,
Lessons they practiced with style and with gusto,
With a love that has blossomed, with nary a veto!
There was Bob, the strong, straight Lieutenant, y’know,
On a break from the War to claim Bunny as Bride.
Seeking a long life. filled with hope and with joy.
And in due course they were joined by two girls and a boy.
You may not know Bob, or His Lady, Bunny
But, you do know our Krissel – our TeeEss Mentor and Friend,
What does that tell you of Bobun’s character and skill?
Nothing more need be said, to fully apprehend!

Well, a war had just started...
Besides, they got married in Florida where Dad was based at the time.

Kris didn't know it but we travelled down Route 66 while Bunny and I lived on the post at Fort Leonard Wood, Missouri in 1943. So that reference has a lot more meaning for us than one would guess.
Here's something to think about...one day back then, we were driving down Route 66 and commented that "Wouldn't it be funny if we stayed married for 66 years."
Little did we know it would come true.
Now we drive down Route 78... hmmmm.

Speaking of Route 66. That's the way my family used to go out west before the Interstate system was developed.
My wife and I have seen many signs for it on our many travels out west. I remember the '49 Ford stuffed to the gills with 2 parents, four teenage kids and a fully packed trunk for a 6-week summer school assignment for my Dad.
My wife and I have also driven a fair stretch of it in Northern Arizona (intentionally). Quite nostalgic!
Take care so you can have many more anniversaries — Happy and healthy of course!
And of course, your lovely daughter Kris is a grand person and has given bucket loads of help to us Mac people here at TeeEss.

....so you can drive faster, right?
94 was the route you were on, it was not the speed limit sign!
Growing up in Illinois, we encountered Route 66 from time to time. Later, on a vacation with our kids, we stopped at one of the several Route 66 museums (I think in Oklahoma) and my son bought a sign for his room. Great nostalgia at those museums...
