Walter Jacobson’s Perspective 6-13-24: Best wishes and a toast to butterflies!
Manage episode 423420287 series 1232489
For as long as I can remember, the Sunday morning newspapers for me have been an every Sunday must, because in addition to behind-the-scenes politics, there are all kinds of news. Like last Sunday, the news about Harold Terens and Jeanne Swerlin of Florida traveling to France to get married on the 80th anniversary of American forces during World War II, the landing on the beaches of Normandy. After their wedding, Harold and Jeanne were invited to a state dinner with French President Emmanuel Macron and U.S. President Joe Biden. There were speeches, cheers, and a standing ovation by a happy crowd offering toasts. In my Sunday papers, there were pictures of Harold and Jeanne, he being a veteran of the Normandy landing, she being his sweetheart for many years. Harold is now 100 years old. Jeanne is 96. He said the wedding was the best day of his life She said he’s the best kisser ever. And they kissed again until he came up for air and said, “That’s it for now,” to which she replied, “You mean there’s more later?” Together, they said, love is not just for the young. We get butterflies too. And also a little action. So what’s left for me to say is that from Chicago, Harold and Jeanne, congratulations! Best wishes and a toast to butterflies! And for more years of your love and kisses!
