Hey, Steve Sr. — John Sebastian didn’t sing that song, nor did his band, Lovin’ Spoonful. The Turtles did that one. But you’re right — he does bear a striking resemblance to Mr. Sebastian. “What a day for a daydream!”

Beautiful picture. Despite all the teasing above, I think it ’speaks’ joy-filled love. Happy Anniversary!

I remember the day very, very well, Mike and Diane. The one thing I remember is we are standing in the back waiting to go out when Mike suddenly said, “I have to go to the bathroom.” He resisted the urge and everything went off without a hitch. We too will celebrate our 30th this year. Funny, my parents seemed a lot older when they had their 30th.

Congratulations!
As far as the hair is concerned, Mike, I rather prefer your current minimalist style to the overabundant locks of yesteryear. Your bride of thirty years is beautiful now as then. But I think the pictures of Diane with her delightful granddaughter are the most beautiful…it must be the joy and pride shining in her eyes

One congratulations right after another…congratulations to Matt on his upcoming graduation!

I can only imagine that, in the 30 years since this picture was taken, Mike has gotten handsomer and Diane has gotten prettier…

But, then, both of those things would be hard to do.

Congratulations to the both of you !!!

Congrats! Let’s ease up a bit — ‘78 was a tough year. Disco left a lot of rock and rollers searching for a new style.

Happy anniversary! I love you guys!
Does Diane know this picture is on the internet? You both look the same in the face - I still see the same two wonderful people in those eyes and smiles!

Who would’ve ever thought that being married for 30 years would bring out Toby Keith lyrics?
I’m thinking something from 78 would be WAY more appropriate. According to a web site I went to, “Night Fever” by the Bee Gees was the #1 hit on May 11th, 1978. But, let’s go with another 78 song:

“You’re once……..twice……three times a lady!”
Commodores

You must have been singing that quite a bit walking between Patti Cobb and the Rhodes Field house.

CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!!!!
Love you both,
DU

I ain’t as good as I once was
My how the years have flown
But there was a time, back in my prime
When I could really hold my own
But if you wanna fight tonight
Guess those boys don’t look all that tough
I ain’t as good as I once was
But I’m as good once as I ever was”

I used to be hell on wheels
Back when I was a younger man
Now my body says, “You can’t do this boy”
But my pride says, “Oh yes you can”

I ain’t as good as I once was
That’s just the cold hard truth
I still throw a few back, talk a little smack
When I’m feelin’ bulletproof
So don’t double dog dare me now
‘Cause I’d have to call your bluff

I ain’t as good as I once was
But I’m as good once as I ever was
May not be good as I once was
But I’m as good once as I ever was…

Toby Keith
