When Did I Know I Loved You?
I wrote a new song for Dorothy to finally answer her question after 50 years of marriage.
“Jack, when did you know you loved me?”
It was not love at first sight for me. After a few months, I fell in love with her. After all the years, I am still falling more deeply in love with you, Dorothy, every single day.
Thanks to Brian Carrion for singing the song so beautifully. Thanks to Paul Burks for creating the amazing graphics which accompanied my tribute to Dorothy and my love for her.

What Is Love?
A year ago I wrote the song. “What Is Love.”
Last night as part of my tribute to Dorothy on our 50th Wedding Anniversary I shared this song with her at Chandelier Grove. Because of my bride Dorothy I know what love is. I hope you enjoy the video.
Thanks to Paul Burks from Austin for creating the video and the special effects. Thanks to Stephanie Jones and Brian Carrion for singing the song. Thanks to my intellectual property lawyer Yocel Alonzo for copyrighting the song.
Thanks to God for Love.

The Celebration

The Queen Barn was beautifully adorned with flowers and greenery by Mark Ruisinger of Mark Anthony’s. The delicious food was provided by Jennifer Trevino of Behind the Bash. We owe so much to Stacey and Russell for opening their hearts and their venue for our once-in-a-wife-time celebration.
Before the event, our family posed for these photos. Our lovely and talented niece McKenzie Emmott took the photos. Thanks, McKenzie for making sure we had these photographs to treasure forever.
What a weekend. What a life. What a love story with my bride Dorothy.

Dorothy and I wish to thank everyone who sent us their well wishes on our 50th Wedding Anniversary. This evening Father Bob Wismer blessed our marriage in a small family service in the Chapel of St. Clare. Father Bob did a wonderful and memorable service for us.
During the service, our Grandson John V (the animated 6-year-old behind me) asked Father Bob if we were having chocolate cake!
Blessings, Jack
