It’s hard to believe that Debbie and I have been married 36 years, as we celebrate that milestone today. I’ve always granted that I married above my station, and that’s reinforced every day as I continue to see her through a filter of love and respect. And my prayer every day is that I will be the kind of husband that she deserves.
I hope that you are equally blessed in finding and loving your soul mate. All else pales in significance.

Eric, OUTSTANDING! Congratulations to you and Your Lovely Bride!
Thanks, Jeff!
…er..uhhmmm…Cindy and I knew that. Hope you enjoyed your gift Sunday evening!! Congratulations!!!
Lyle, we couldn’t think of anything more romantic than watching a Rockhounds baseball game.
But, then, we’ve also been married for 36 years!
(But, in all seriousness, we did have a great time Sunday night; thanks for inviting us.)
Congrats Eric!
Thanks much, Rob.
Congratulations, Eric and YLB!
Muchas gracias, amiga!
Congratulations! 🙂
Again, thank you very much!
Eric,
Congratulations to you and YLB. Obviously she is an exceptional and tolerant lady, and you would have excelled in sales. Here’s to many more…
Congratulations to both of you!
Gregg, you have to remember that Fort Stockton was (is) a very small town and pickin’s were slim. But you are certainly right about her.
Donna, thanks!
That’s awesome! Congratulations to both of you. It sounds like you are both equally blessed.
36 blessed years. Congratulations to you both. Go Dancing!!
Gwynne, I think you’re right. That’s the secret to a successful marriage, isn’t it, for both of you to feel blessed.
Thanks, Jen. I think dancing keeps you young(ish), but it’s probably because we’re always arguing about who’s supposed to be leading.
I’m not feeling so articulate being sick and all, so the first thought that came to mind is awww! Couples like you are very rare and make me glad that I am waiting until I have what you guys have (rather than settle for the first guy that comes along). Okay, hope that came out right hehe – I’m very muddled today!
Rachel, not only are you quite articulate but you get the award for the sweetest comment of the day! And I think God will bless your desire to wait for just the right person in your life.
Thanks for the note, and get well soon!
Congrats on 36 years! I’ve been married almost 8 and hope to enjoy as much happiness (and adventure) as the two of you have.
Thanks, Eric! Marriage is like almost everything else: the harder you work at it, the more successful it is. I think you’ll be just fine.
My eyes are deceiving me! I thought you said, “36” years. This cannot be…you were married at age 8??
Congratulations, especially to the Bride for sticking it out as you matured :<}
Wallace, I’ll admit that she might have been the tiniest bit underage when we got married.
But I’ll never admit to “maturing”!
Yikes! I missed it! By a full week!
Many more blessed years to you both!
