When I phoned from somewhar in Arizony tuh see if she'd do it, she flat-out declined. I had to argue my case. Eventually, she saw the rationale and tonight, Dan & Dave, our neighbors, came over to officiate and witness. Dave, on my right, is an ordained Catholic priest and Dan, in red sweater, his husband of 25 years, came as a witness. Margie, a friend of ours, agreed to be the other witness.
Michelle painted the tie in 1997 for a Valentine show at the gallery.
As part of the rite, we each had a doughnut.
Congrats! Donuts for wedding cake...perfect :)

ReplyDeleteI love you, Mr. Herrmann! Or is that Mr. Cook, now? Or Cook-Herrmann? Herrmann-Cook? The choices are endless and baffling.
