My parents' love story 50 years ago

My mum wrote this sweet love story if her first date with my dad 50 years ago, and my dad kindly posed a reenactment. What a very sweet couple!


"... in 1962 ... this man spent ALL his savings to buy 5 cones of Ragusa Italian Ice cream for the girl he had decided to be his wife ... but in his eagerness to please the whole family, he tripped and dropped ALL 5 cones ... 50 years ago, in this exact position, at the point of crossing the street ... but he was sooo much younger, sooo much thinner, and sooo much poorer than he is in this pic ... Yet he is still the same man, my dear dear Joe ;D

I love you forever, Daddy Joe <3"
