I’m wearing a necklace David gave me that year to celebrate our “going steady” . The silver pendant has my name on one side and David’s on the other. I still have it, of course.

Woodland Christian Church in Houston, Texas. My brother, Rev. Emil Bunjes Jr. officiated. It was his first wedding to perform as a new seminary graduate and preacher.
“Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful. Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom and as you sing psalms, hymns and spiritual songs with gratitude in your hearts to God. And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him.”
Colossians 3: 15 through 17
‘Til He Shouts!
1 Thessalonians 4:16
What a lovely celebration of 63 years! All the best to you both!
Melanie, We can hardly believe it ourselves; time flies by so fast. Thanks for the wishes.
You have had a great week of celebration and glad you end the week celebrating with your family. And added to all that you created a selfie. Who said can’t learn something new!
Yes, Kathy, it’s true that there is always something new to learn. We had a lovely evening with most of our family, those who live in town. I miss you a lot, Friend.
Congratulations, Adele and David, on 63 very blessed married years together! I love you both dearly! I feel like I’ve known you both all my life – oh, wait – I HAVE known you both all my life! . And, lucky me, for sure!!! 😍
Oh yes, We have known you ALL your life and have loved you every minute of the way.
Congratulations, David and Adele!!
Love and Blessings, Gloria and Walt Warfel
Thank you, Gloria and Walt. We are blessed, and so are you two.
I’m so proud of both of you. You’re such wonderful, Godly people. You are the best parents in the world!! I love you both.
What sweet words, darling daughter Karen. Thank you and thanks for spending the evening with us. It was a blessing.
Happy Anniversary my dear sweet friends! You are a blessing to all that know you and such a wonderful Christian example! xoxo
I really appreciate your kind words, Sheila. You are such a good friend, and a beautiful lady.
Happy Anniversary, Lovebirds! You two are so wonderful. God knew what he was doing when he brought you together.
AWWW, thanks, Donna.
That’s so sweet! I’m so grateful that God has given you so many happy years together. May he bless you with many more!
Thank you, Emily. We are grateful for you and Alex. We appreciate your greeting.
Brings back a lot of memories; we were both poor but hopeful and had decided it would be much better to be poor together than poor apart. We took our honeymoon in a borrowed car but had a memorable time in New Braunfels for our short honeymoon. It was wonderful and still is.
Yes.
I see Keith in the photo of David!! Also didn’t know (or remember) that Uncle Buddy did the wedding. Photo of the necklace, please.
Okay, Julie. I’ll take a photo of the necklace soon. Yes, Keith looks a lot like David. Rev. Buddy was more nervous than we were.
