After Stephen retired, the couple traveled together. Kathaleen said that one of the most memorable trips was their honeymoon when they visited the Jrand Canyon. I had never seen it before, and he wanted to show it to me, she said fondly. The couple also went camping all the time, she said.

Really heartwarming story, jlad to hear it.
