Chris & Amy Carr Family

Dear Mom and Dad, Happy 50th anniversary! It is impossible to try and articulate in a single letter the impact and significance your lives and marriage have had on me and my family. As I’ve contemplated your life together, I’ve come to see with more clarity the eternal importance of the seemingly small choices that we make every single day...choices to love, to serve, to sacrifice, to be kind and compassionate, to put another person above ourselves, to be loyal and devoted, to look at and choose priorities carefully, to choose goodness and light, to choose the right even when it’s hard, to have faith, to follow the Savior, to choose each other every day, to choose family.

Todd & Carrie Ann Rhodes Family

Dear Mom and Dad, Phew! You’ve made it through the easy years! They say the next 50 years are the hardest to get through. Expressing my feelings through words has never been my forte. I would rather throw you a party or make you a dinner to show you how I feel. But I will try. Things your marriage has taught me (in no particular order): · Be partners · Cleaning the house has nothing to do with gender · Everyone has a part to play and a job to do · Counsel with each other · Support each other · Keeping covenants together makes a strong foundation · Make the Gospel THE priority · Be married (I actually learned that from Todd) · ...
