most powerful and helpful endorsements, her words were so filled with love and that letter meant a lot to me personally.
It is great to see these pictures of them as a happy couple. One of the great love stories of American history.

They had to love each other soooo much to put up with what they did.

I saw pictures of them 2 years ago in the Richmond Times-Dispatch (RW rag) and actually gasped at their pictures and how so much in love they were. I showed them to my wife and she said, "Wow I don't know if I have ever seen a couple look like that before".

A truly great love
