Marriage Vows in Concrete… I want it clearly understood up front. My wife and I would invite my Uncle Mort and Aunt Maude to church again if they ever visit on a Sunday. We both wish--as does Maude—that Mort’s“monetary-itis” dominating his adult life would loosen its grip on the Lord’s Day. He may--or may not--remember what the preacher said, but his antenna went straight up when he overheard four ladies discussing their upcoming 65th wedding anniversaries.
