On September 1972 Sherry and I were married at Newcastle Civic Centre, the weather was a lovely sunny warm autumn day. The other photo was taken later outside the Six Mile Bridge, Seaton Burn, which was where we had our afternoon reception, and we also had an evening reception at the Grand Hotel, Tynemouth for our friends that lived in North Tyneside. I met Sherry in a work situation, so even though she's not here now with me, we had known each other for fifty years. As a married couple, we were together for 49 years and 47 days, that's two thirds of our lives spent together. Sherry officially passed away on November 15th, 2021 after being in a coma and on a ventilator since the early hours of November 14th 2021. On our 25th Anniversary we had a large party in Morpeth, so for many years we had both been looking forward to our fiftieth anniversary in September 2022 sadly it was not to be.
