My hubby and I had a romance through the mail! He was drafted into the Army and stationed in South Korea. We married shorty after his return. This brought back so many memories. We have celebrated 58 years of marriage this year

@dancnluc1 24 дня назад

What a beautiful story! I love stories like that. My dad was from the South and stationed in PA in the Army. He ask my mom to marry him the first day he meet her. Less then a year they did marry. He passed away right before their 50th anniversary!

@ronsroka6553 24 дня назад

I remember you and your wonderful family when you were stationed at Ft Bragg - many many years ago. We had some great times together. I still have a casserole carrier you made for me and I cherish it. We are now in our seventies and you still hold a special place in my heart. Blessings to all of you- Lorna

@CosmopolitanCornbread 22 дня назад

Awww, thank you so much Lorna! It's funny, you actually came to mind not that long ago. I wondered how you were doing. I am touched that you still have the casserole carrier. ❤

Very sweet story that debunks today's issues of living together to make sure you are compatible. Thank y'all for your service. I am a retired military wife married 40 years. God has blessed us greatly with grace to stay together through it all. Blessings to you both for more memorable time together until our time on earth is done❤🙏

@donnamullins2089 24 дня назад

What a leap of faith. Letters are powerful and the anticipation of a weekly or daily letter expressing ones private thoughts. Glad the right guy received your first note. Thanks for your story.

@joellenbroetzmann9053 24 дня назад

What an amazing story! Both my husband and I were born in MN, but lived in WI. We have spent about 15 years time in AL and SC because he worked in tire manufacturing and the WI plant he worked at for over 20 years closed. Now retired and married 53 years in 2 weeks, we are back in WI where we can walk on water. I think our amazing Lord and Heavenly Father picked you both out to be together and you both heeded His direction for your life! My mom and gramdmas were also quilt makers. They were from dairy farm roots in Pierce County.

@krickette5569 24 дня назад

What a Lovely story! My hubby's grandparents married two weeks after they met. They had over 60 years together before she passed. My hubby and I knew on our first date that we had just met our future. Sometimes you just know.

A wonderful and Beautiful story. Reminds me a little of my grandparents story. They wrote many letters and only saw each other in person 3 times before they married. They had 6 children and married over 60 years. I don't recall exactly now. And my grandpa was 28 when they married and grandma was 17. ❤ I just love hearing love stories.

Constance, thank you so much for sharing your story! My husband and I also met in the Army, so as you spoke I was able to envision things just as they were. My husband was at ft, dix before getting stationed at ft. stewart, where we would meet and come together! I remember Sunday Chapel well! Loved your story and the photos! FYI we are now in our 60"s and retired.

Wow, what a beautiful story. I live in Georgia now, but in 1991, I was in Washington, DC working. And yes, I am about 20 miles from Dallas, Georgia, so I know exactly where you are talking about. I hope that you both continue this life's journey for many more years together. Thanks to both of you for your service.

Love your love story. My husband went into the Marines the very same time yall did. He was in the Gulf War. He was also in the ground war. Eight Marines rolled up on a Company of 160 Iraq's. He's gunner's gun jammed up, (50 cal.) and he froze. So James,( my husband) ran across every one firing at each other and unjammed his gun. The 8 Marines took them all out. He was awarded the Bronze Star with a Combat V. My Father was a Colonel for 20 years.West Point He wrote all the new letters every week for many many years. You all, I'm sure read some of those. WOW small world. Big Hugs, enjoy your videos!

What a sweet story!!! Thanks for sharing!!! This fall will be our 40th anniversary. My husband lived in OH and I was from PA. We met in VA doing a term of VS at a nursing home. Yes we mailed lots of letters after our terms were up. That was before cell phones and emails. We did phone calls on some weekends. We got married a year after we met.

My husband and I had our first date Memorial Day weekend. On the beach! Both of us were in the Navy. I had to leave because I pulled duty. I invited him to dinner…..we’ve been together for 50 years! Married in August and everyone said it wouldn’t last. My MIL called me ‘that woman’ for two or three months. We did become friends.

@CosmopolitanCornbread 22 дня назад

@auntdello5286 24 дня назад

Loved your story! Thank you so much for sharing it. Back in 1978, when I was in Marine Corp boot camp, I attended chapel for the same reason you did. Sadly there were no nice guys in attendance. I do remember gettling in a bit of a tussle with one of my squad mates on the way to chapel. My drill instructor was mortified at us, and we both paid dearly.

@srt4gurl 23 дня назад

Awwwww... Sitting here watching you tell us your story.. and you can see how smitten you are with Mr.Smith.. the more were you talking about those note! You lit up!! Very cool of you to share your story with your subscribers! My Husband and I will be together for 34 years in August and married for 28 years and 2 adult kids later! I knew the moment I met him.. That he was going to be my hubby.. and i was 17 years old! He is my 1 and done!

@arvellataratuta2150 24 дня назад

That is a wonderful story. Thank you for sharing. My own story is different but also wonderful. We had 32 years of marriage when he suddenly had a brain aneurysm. It took me many years to come out of grief but even though I am now remarried, I will never forget our years together. Praise God for every day you have together. God Bless you both.

When this video came out I was all but delirious with a whole bunch of things gone wrong and converging at one point in time snd space. What a fun and sweet way to spend some time in the wee hours when I am awake and alert after I finally "woke up". Your dress was perfect. I smiled all the way through. If only people would focus on loving each other sweetly, how life would change. Don't forget to repost this for Valentines Day. 💖

Maybe you could show it sometime. God bless you both. And I so enjoy everything you do. I don't miss a thing lol. What an interesting life our Lord has given you. And. I know He considers you a good and faithful servant. You take care of His land.... His creation.... His animals.... and preach His word. You are a blessing Miss Constance. Love you. And may the Lord give you all the desires of your heart. Linda from Rhode Island
