They started dating when she was 14 and he was 17 and married 3 years later and built a loving Christian family over the next 60 plus years. Their love of fishing together is shared with the many stories of who caught the most and the biggest fish of the day with the best story being when she got mad because her line kept getting hung in the brush so she threw her entire rod and reel in the lake and said I am done fishing now.
