God has truly blessed Joe and Linda and their family through all of these years. Without him, none of this would be possible. So, first and foremost the couple would like to thank their heavenly father for his love and for his blessing in their 50 years of marriage. They would also like to thank their children and their families for honoring them and for making their 50th anniversary so special.
