Boy Meets Girl, the Break Up, Boy Marries Girl: Happy Couple 27 Years Later [Video]

Today, my Dr. Phil and I celebrate 27 years of marriage. It hasn’t always been easy, but it sure has been worth it. We could not be happier, and Phil still reminds me of Tom Selleck (see video).

Would you like to hear about our love story?

In April, Phil and I spoke at the Founder’s Day Chapel at our beloved Alma Mater, Palm Beach Atlantic University. Phil graduated in ’85, I graduated in ’86, and we married on August 9, 1986.

In our talk, we could not help but reflect on our days at PBA. We’d tried our best to relate to the students, and honor some of the wonderful people that had such an impact on our lives. Phil put some “old-school” photos together to go along with our talk.

The first 18 minutes of this video is our love story. The last 9 minutes is our challenge to the students. I hope you enjoy at least a few minutes of it.

For the readers out there, you can read a good bit of my experiences at Palm Beach Atlantic in my book Lessons I Learned in the Dark. Phil always brags that it is his favorite book because his name is mentioned in it 19 times. 🙂

I love my Dr. Phil, and he has loved me like no other for 27+ years, today.

By the way, the video we began our presentation with can be found here.
