NEVER TOO LATE FOR LOVE
To the center of my universe, my sun to warm my days, my moon to illuminate my nights, Jeanne Michaloski, your love fills me to overflowing. I pray I can bring to you the best I have, to fill all our times together with each daily dance and every humble hike. You’re the greatest, Honey! [2-17]
David, I hope you will remain my Valentine after almost 40 years of adventures together … long sailing voyages, cross-country train trips, van camping, and both battling the elements and enjoying the amazing sunsets on Beach Point. Your always Valentine, Annie [2-17]
Roses are red,/ violets are blue,/ everyone at Saxton House/ is thinking of you! —Love from Mom, Dad, Luca, and Moses [2-17]
