On Saturday, October 17 my 86 year old dad married a beautiful 86 year old woman named Helen Cox. The full story is in the article covered by their local newspaper the Adrian Daily Telegram in Adrian, Michigan.

I am so happy that I was able to be at their wedding. It was by far the best wedding I've ever attended. I cried when the bride walked up the aisle, and felt pure joy for my Dad at his happiness.
My friends and family made the weekend even more special.
My husband and I stayed with my lifelong girlfriend and her family in Dexter, MI. They are my extended family and I appreciate every moment with them.
My brother Mark and his wife Tracey lent us a car to get around in. So thoughtful. It was shining clean, detailed and filled with gas. How nice is that?
My brother Jim and his wife Terry suggested another get together on Sunday so we could spend more time together. We walked around Dexter, and went to the Cider Mill.
My brothers and their wives are all saints. They take care of my Dad and make sure he has as comfortable a life as possible. I love them all and I will be grateful forever.
Janet and Jerry, their family and animals (4 cats and forever precious McGeyvor) were hosts extraordinaire.
What an amazing weekend. Here are some pictures.
