Seventy-Six Trombones Have Become Trumpets

Seventy-Six Trombones Have Become Trumpets

Photo of my parents coming out of Philadelphia City Hall June 11, 1942

In the famous movie, “The Music Man”, there are seventy-six trombones;
That lead marchers in the big parade, playing the Holiday’s best tones!
But on this very special day, in the Heavens up above;
The Angels serenade you with trumpets, to herald of your love!
.
For on June eleventh, nineteen forty-two, you tied the magic knot;
Professing your love for one another, forever cast your lot!
Today is your Anniversary, the diamond year plus one;
So seventy-six golden trumpets, will get the festivities begun!
.
You will be the honorary Marshalls, of this procession very huge;
Well-wishers will line the street, and with rose petals, you deluge!
At it’s end, you’ll hold hands with one another, then kiss for all to see;
Everyone will know how much in love you are, and how beautiful life can be!
.
.
                                Life is e’er a dream
                              In Paradise up above
                          With your dear Soulmate

My Dear Tony,

Sweet memories are made of this
Yours and mine so co-exist
I have found the brother that I never had
I can see the sweet smiles on my Mom and Dad

P.S.  
Another lucky marriage made in Heaven
The importance of number eleven
If you would like us to be there at your sides
We would love to honor the Groom and Angel Bride

All our love,
Linda and Larry xxx

Dear Faith,

Your "beautiful verse", has brought tears to my eyes.
Some day, I pray that I will share their Anniversary again at their sides.

Love,
