I read today in one of those "Dear Abby" letters that a couple should live within their means planning their wedding. I was so stupid and my mother was so smart that it never occurred to me to ask my parents for money. My mother never volunteered anything other than some feather beds. Boy did I need them in Texas later! I worked for the US Army. They sponsored the whole wedding for me as a gift. It was a lovely wedding and I will never forget their kindness. There was no honeymoon. The groom departed shortly after for a six weeks maneuver. He had a tendency to depart and the marriage was over after three years.
