Legion are my memories where the three boys were with Mom and Dad going to fancy restaurants, taking long coastal drives, spending the day at far away beach cities, shopping for antiques, fishing, spending a Saturday at an auction house, hanging out at their workplace (they always worked together), and going with them wherever they wanted to go.

    • Marrying someone with similar cultural and religious values increases the success rate of the marriage.
    • Education level taken by itself, increases proportionately the success of a marriage.
