Thank you Ann and Lynda. Once in a while we get a winner, right? Maybe it’s that MOJO when you think about parents you miss terribly! 🙂 My parents met at a USO dance hall while my Dad’s ship was in for repairs. Soon after his extended drydock stay – when his ship was put back to sea, he wrote and asked if he sent the ticket – would she come to Virginia from Maine and marry him. She said yes … and they married at the base Navy chapel. She was a single mom with two daughters 2 and 3. He was father to all – with my brother and I coming along years later on. They had 51 years of dancing together.
