Jen and Dans Wedding Day





Yes we all thought the day would never happen but it did!! The last of Jon and Dee's daughters has been married off. The weekend affair was held on the north shore of the island near Port Jeff at a place called the Three Village Inn. The atmosphere was completely New England. The place was very colonial and cozy. Family and friends were traveling in from all over the US and overseas. The farthest attendee I spoke to had just flown in from Germany. This wedding had the feel of what jen and den were looking for in their big day. Very cozy and low key affair. The weather of course was truly a pest but it made us all concentrate on being together with family and friends. At first I felt the rain and damp weather was going to ruin the weather but is actually encouraged us all to stay close hotel and relax with all the friends who were in attendance. Seeing the family come together from north south east and west was terrific. Dans family of course were traveling some of the longest distances coming in from the great western state of Wyoming and one of his sister trekking back from Ireland for the party. Meeting them was certainly cool for us all. Dans family knew as much about NYC as we all knew of Wyoming. We all found his family much like Dan, thoughtful introspective supportive and accepting of the their new found relatives. Dans mom and dad were gracious in speaking of how they are looking forward to their new daughter in law. We all know that Jen will fit in just fine. I'm sure Dan's family will find Jen just as we know her, gentle, tender, loving, emotional, caring, devoted and fun loving. Needless to say I have been in love with Jen from first time I met her. God a long time ago now, over 20 years. Some of you may know the "vibe" people can send and receive form oneanother. I still have that feeling in my mind she gave me, her caring goodwilled nature. She melts my heart when she reffers to me as her brother. How we all now envy Dan that he now has such a fantastic partner for the rest of his life. The best is yet to come as we all know. Their children will think they have hit the parent lottery with the bonus ball. Watching them over the coming years will be a treat for us all...
