Harry met Martha when she was in High School even though they had grown up only eight miles apart. His family lived in Cedar Creek Community and Martha’s lived in Cobbtown. At sixteen he had taken over his father’s former job driving a school bus when his father died. Martha was in the 10th grade at the time and although she didn’t ride his bus, he saw her at the school when he would load the bus. After a time, he worked up the nerve to speak. She obviously captured more than the young bus driver’s eye. This November will be their 59th Wedding Anniversary.
