What was your courtship like? Describe your marriage day.

I guess I will cover both of my husbands.

I met Kerry Lynch as a blind date.  I was working with his sister, Mickey, at Hanford.  I was single and she set me up with her brother.  We went out and "Liked" each other.  I was living in Richland with Darlene Swanson in a prefab home.  Kerry and I dated for about 9 months.  I became pregnant (oops) and we were married at Christ the King church on September 1, 1972.  Our reception was at the Knights of Columbus Hall in Richland.  Great party.  Our honeymoon was a week of camping in the Seattle Area and Victoria, BC.

I met Mark Johnson at Hanford in the 308 bldg.  He asked me out on a date for the long weekend, July 1.  We went out boating in the beechcraft.  He had two more dates over that long weekend but cancelled them both after our date.  We saw each other every day after that because first of all we were working in the same bldg. (308 bldg.)  Mark moved in with me at 2538 West Entiat in September and we have now been together for 37 years and counting.  We did get married four years after moving in together.  We had bought our house at 415 Green Place and had our first child together so I told him that if he wanted to continue our relationship he had to marry me. We were married at the hitching post in Coer de Laine, Idaho (didn't spell that correctly) on our way to Priest Lake.  Jason and Lindsey were with us.  Our honeymoon was another week at the lake.
