  years that my lovely bride and I have been together. It has been quite a ride. ;)

Congratulations Mr and Mrs Harold!  That type of commitment is rare indeed today, and even though we have never met, it says alot about what type of people your wife and you are! Good on you!

Harold,

Congratulations,  

From previous posts by you as well as others,  I gather that you also have some outstanding children.  Does me good to know there are still strong family units out there.  Also from your posts I know you and your family have had some interesting experiences.

Way ta go you two.  Harold you tell some great stories and tales here on the forum, but man, I sure would liked to have heard some of the ones you've must've told the misses to keep her there for FORTY YEARS.  You got to be one smooth talker FDH. Congratulations and hope your next forty are just as happy.

Got 27 in, but the last two weeks don't count as she
hasn't talked to me or fed me.  >:( :( ::) :-[ :'(   Me and Ole Butch is sharing thee same space. :o

Congrats FD and Mrs FD. 40 years seems to be a long time, but when you look back and think about it, it probably went pretty fast.
Proud of you both.

  Thanks for all the kind words. The Mrs. was a town girl. I moved her to the country and she worked side by side with me doing all the crazy stuff I thought up. Some of the stories would make for great telling. Maybe someday. ;D ;D

Congrats Harold and Mrs. Harold,
It is nice to see other people who
believe in the "Till Death Do Us Part"
philosophy and work hard to stay hitched.
Too many people throw in the towel today
rather than work on the issues that make them
become better people.  

However,  Mrs. Noble really deserves an attagirl to
stay married to Noble since '67  ;)  ;D
