Re: Your proposal story?
Walt and I had dated for 3 years. One evening, we were laying on the floor watching tv (NO we were not "doing anything". Just laying there watching tv - very innocent!). A commercial came on and we started talking. During the conversation, Walt says, "You know, everybody assumes we're probably going to get married eventually. What do you think? Should we prove them right?" I answered, "Ya, I guess we could" and then the show came back on. End of conversation.
The next day, Walt called and said, "So did you really agree to marry me last night?" When I said I had, he whooped and hollered. Then calmed down and we set a date. This was in January. We set the date for Sept. 21st. Longest 9 months of my entire life!!!

Re: Your proposal story?
Nothing fancy! It was love at first sight, (saw her at church), and it's been over 50 years. Can't tell you exactly how the proposal went cause someone might recognize my story. Think I'll keep her tho!
