Grandpappy told me that the best advice he was ever given was from his mother on his wedding day back in the 1950's. She said, "Remember, your mother is a woman."
He said he had ups and downs in his marriage to Grandmammy Ruby, but he always remembered his mother's words to treat his wife with the greatest respect and love, just as he would his own mother. Grandpappy and Grandmammy Ruby were married for over 40 years.
And in the twilight of her life, Grandpappy was a caregiver for his beloved wife. Love comes in many forms, sometimes it's in the form of insulin injections at odd hours, or changing the dressing on a wound from a surgery, or finding her the latest romance novel from one of her favorite authors
.
Grandpappy never remarried. He told me once upon a time that he had found the best wife a man could ask for and there was no way any other woman could take her place.
Bloodsport
was a movie they loved watching together. Grandpappy loved the action and Grandmammy loved the shirtless JCVD
. Just my two cents, but I think having the same taste in movies also keeps a couple together.
