| 65 years for Glenn & Virginia Lyon! I have known these two all my life, and I can tell you that what you see is what you get...They are the genuine deal! Daddy is quiet...Mother not so much!....I have never known them any different. You can probably tell who I take after. I love to golf and have thought for years that in golfer's terms, that I am on the back 9...but these two are on the last two holes. But these holes are going to be memorable....probably not to them, since neither can find their keys or their phone. But we will remember. We will remember how they made us feel, how much they invested in us, and how deeply they served the Lord! |

This is such a beautiful post Laura. I loved the photos and the captions and the people and the smiles and the boots and the food and the precious hands. What a legacy they are leaving, and part of that is their incredible daughter Laura! Thanks for sharing!
