On Valentine's Day 2009, Matt and I had the honor of photographing the wedding of Susan and Don Greenwood. Their story is what dreams are made of.
Both Susan and Don are in their 50's. Susan had never been married and Don, has been single many years. To find love in the middle of your life is wonderful but read on!
A few years ago, Susan had a stroke, it has been a long uphill battle to recover from it. Don had a series of strokes last year. They met in a home while rehabilitating. The rest is history.
Susan walked down the aisle and Don was there standing and waiting for her.
Each has lost the use of one side of their body, one left the other right. Together they make a whole. By helping each other, they are able to live on their own and create a life together.
You can learn more about them by visiting the Channel 13website: http.//cbs13.com/video/?cid=7 search for December 7, 2008.
There is also news story at: http.//www.sacbee.com/ourregion/story1470626.html
I recall hearing the news story and thinking to myself, I hope they have a great photographer. As luck would have it, we were referred to them by one of our past brides who is also a close friend of Susan's. We cleared our day and made ourselves available for this wonderful occasion. There was no way we were going to pass it up!
Their love is an inspiration to all of us.
Congratulations Susan and Don, we wish you all of the best.
