AS a student at Ohio State I got a part time job working for a company owned by my husbands family. I knew they had three sons but they were away at military school.

I was young and romantic and hadn't outgrown my dreams of finding "The PRINCE". One day I was redoing the display window and saw three young men dressed in military attire staring at me in the window. One was taller and HE Had on a red jacket, the other two were in blue. I could hear music playing. The gorgeous young man in red with epaulets and stripes on his pants looked just like Cinderella's PRINCE.

They came into the store and I learned that they were the family's three sons, and were dressed in their uniforms because their grandmother had wanted them to sit for a photographer.

I was very shy and I didn't drive or have much money. He would talk to me a lot and asked me to go to his sisters wedding with him. He offered to teach me to drive. He had a 57' Plymouth Fury. (WOW!) He was VERY respectful of my shyness, but I thought he would NEVER kiss me. Well after two weeks of trying to learn to drive I finally I kissed him and the rest is history.

I am so LUCKY. He is still my PRINCE.
