A Heartwarming Moment

Last week-end we attended my husband's 45th year reunion of his medical school class.
Following the brunch before the football game, the 25 to 30 returning members of his class had an "open mike" for their group. Some told funny stories from med school days, others spoke of their favorite professor or what had inspired them to pursue their specialty. Richard is never one to be serious and he does not like public speaking. I expected him to pass. But he went to the microphone and said, "The most important thing that happened to me in medical school was when Temp (his classmate) and Corrine (a sorority sister) fixed me up with my wife, Carol." I was dumfounded! I will certainly forgive him for not remembering anniversaries and passing over Valentine's Day every year!
