70th Wedding Anniversary

Happy 70th Anniversary Poem

Nick

Shirin

Lexi

Frederick

In 1941 they said “I Do” with a kiss

Now its been 70 years of bliss

He married the girl next door

Lillian proved she was no bore

A smile that lit up the room

A laugh that brushed off doom

She liked him too

He was a cool dude

Armond was the Italian man

Who provided for the “fam”

With his hands he worked to the top

Owning a high class hair dressing shop

Soon they had two more pearls

Cecilia and Phyllis, the Pilone girls

1 - 2 - 3 - 4

And not one more

In 1958 they moved from shore to shore

To Carmel California from Long Island New York

The Pilone girls grew up the same

It wasn’t too long when grandkids came

Cecila had three cutie pies

Phyllis did too, I’m telling no lies

3 + 3 = 6

5 girls & 1 boy in the mix

Then came the great-grandkids, so much!

And we are 4 of the whole bunch!

Grandma Pilone likes to pray

She goes to Church each Sunday

Grandpa Pilone drives here there

Without a single moment to spare

She made my blankie

It makes me happy

We love you both and the way you are (s)

Happy 70th Anniversary from 4 of your stars!
