tvordlj50 years ago today, Nancy and Ken Johnston, both aged 20, married at St. Mary's Basilica Glebe in Halifax, Nova Scotia. January 6, 1956. My mom and dad have had the kind of marraige that you hold up as the best example of how it should be. They worked together as a team, raising kids, making a home that was filled with laughter and support and love.
Most of you know my dad has struggled with cancer over the last year and is in the hospital now. All we really wanted was for him to make it until Jan. 6 for this very special day.
