Who’s This?

Wedding

It’s obviously of a couple at their wedding, but who?

Hard to guess, ain’t it?

Well, here’s a clue–a photo taken last month with the grandkids . . .

Grandchildren

If that ain’t enought, I’ll just tell you who it is: It’s Janet and Steve Ray.

Today–Monday–is their 30th anniversary.

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY, GUYS! MANY HAPPY RETURNS!

GET THE (JOYFUL) STORY!

Author: Jimmy Akin

Jimmy was born in Texas, grew up nominally Protestant, but at age 20 experienced a profound conversion to Christ. Planning on becoming a Protestant seminary professor, he started an intensive study of the Bible. But the more he immersed himself in Scripture the more he found to support the Catholic faith, and in 1992 he entered the Catholic Church. His conversion story, "A Triumph and a Tragedy," is published in Surprised by Truth. Besides being an author, Jimmy is the Senior Apologist at Catholic Answers, a contributing editor to Catholic Answers Magazine, and a weekly guest on "Catholic Answers Live."

  1. I couldn’t find an audio version which is fun, but here are the lyrics for a 30 year anniversary.
    Lyrics
    originally on Appalachian Melody
    (chorus)
    Happy cornbread anniversary
    Happy cornbread anniversary
    Happy cornbread anniversary
    Here’s to you and yours!
    Well, old Homer and Irene…
    You’ve been hitched thirty years
    So you’re entitled to a round
    of thirty cornbread cheers!
    Corn Corn Corn Corn [etc]
    [insert a little hambone and mouth noise here]
    [chorus]
    [three part harmony oooohhh’s

  3. Cornbread anniversary? Can you have one of those north of the Mason-Dixon line?
    Anyway, Happy Anniversary, and you are one brave couple, allowing people to see pictures of yourself with Seventies hair. You couldn’t pay me to do it 😉

  4. Congrats, folks.
    (PS: I’ve had the pleasure of working with Steve on a couple of his projects, and I’ve coem to see that Janet’s contributions to hsi work are amazing. A true team effort, theirs.)

  5. Congratulations Steve and Janet!
    I’ve always thought that Steve looks like Jason Alexander when he was on Seinfled. No offense Steve! 🙂

    Steve & Janet’s marriage has definately been *fruitful*. All those grandkids look like they are simply bursting at the seams with life! And then some!
