My parents are incredible people! They will have been married 64 years next month! That alone is amazing!! They were/are such great parents, grandparents/great grandparents! They raised the four of us in a Christian home and made sure that we went to church and were taught the the ways of our Savior. They are two very hard working individuals...and that is the reason for this post. Because yesterday they both officially retired from the Va Beach School Board. And their years served (corporately) were 70yrs!!! Yep, I said 70!! My Mama had driven a school bus for 45 years!!! And Daddy has been the arms & legs on a handicapped school bus to assist those who needed his muscle for 25 years!! Mama is 81 years young and Daddy will be 86 years in September. Like I said...AMAZING!!!
They were honored this past month by many at the School Board and also the various schools that they have participated at. They were showered by many dear friends and honored by all of those who have been blessed by their service. The School Board has just said "goodbye" to two incredible, hard working gems...it is their loss for sure!
So, Mama & Daddy (finally) enjoy some retirement days...you both have more than earned them!
Love You Both!!
