Jerry & Brenda Broome French

Jerry and Brenda wanted to share with the class that they just celebrated their 46th Wedding Anniversary with a fun trip to Harrah's Casino breakfast buffet on Saturday morning, 4-20-08. They were accompanied by their daughter Holly and Brenda's Mom, Mrs. Alice Broome who is 86 years old.

Brenda said she and Jerry met at a sock hop in Benton, LA. She and Carolyn Holiday had gone to the sock hop that night and Jerry was playing in the band, and that was it for her. She ask him to dance and he accepted and it was love at first sight. That love has lasted all these years for them.

They got married at Wynn Methodist Church at the corner of Virginia and Merwin in Shreveport in 1962. Brenda remembers driving to Dallas in Jerry's white '57 Ford convertible for their honeymoon.

Congratulations Brenda and Jerry for all the past years together and may you have many more happy Anniversaries to come with Holly and Mrs. Alice enjoying them with you. God Bless!
