60th High School Reunion, He was a widower and she a widow.<>
They had known each other for a number of years being high school classmates and having attended class reunions in the past without fail.<>
This 60th anniversary of their class, the widower and the widow made a foursome with two other singles.<>
They had a wonderful evening, their spirits high. The widower throwing admiring glances across the table.<>
The widow smiling coyly back at him. Finally, he picked up courage to ask her, “Will you marry me?”<>
After about six seconds of careful consideration, she answered, “Yes,….. yes I will!” The evening ended on a happy note for the widower.<>
But the next morning he was troubled. Did she say Yes? or did she say No? He couldn’t remember. Try as he would, he just could not recall.<>
He went over the conversation of the previous evening, but his mind was blank.<>
He remembered asking the question but for the life of him he could not recall her response.<>
With fear and trepidation, he picked up the phone and called her. First, he explained that he couldn’t remember as well as he used to.<>
Then he reviewed the past evening. As he gained a little more courage he then inquired of her.<>
“When I asked if you would marry me, did you say Yes? or did you say No? “Why you silly man, I said Yes. Yes I will ! And I meant it with all my heart.” The widower was delighted.<>
He felt his heart skip a beat. Then she continued. “And I am so glad you called because I couldn’t remember who asked me!”<>
