01-21-12 is a historic date in our family. This day marks the 50th Wedding Anniversary of our beloved Lolo Carding and Lola Tina, my paternal grandparents. Instead of a big party, we attended mass at San Martin, handed-out food for the children there and after the ceremony, had dinner at La Familia Restaurant with the immediate family.
It was a simple and intimate affair, no guests except for the kids and several San Martin visitors,
yet a memorable one. Our familial love is in the air and I was misty-eyed in joy.
The officiating priest and relative, Fr. Boyet, said it best that "Marriage is a mission".
My grandparents withstood many obstacles to keep our family strong. We are a close-knit bunch
and we continue to be so because we have Lolo & Lola in our lives.
