DAY 83 - September 6 - Happy Anniversary!
Kent here.... I just got a phone call from the oldest of the Brothers Williamson, Brad, who reminded me that it was 23 years ago today that Eric and Cherié were married! This photo that Brad donated for the cause was taken on a camping trip not long after the wedding.
The ceremony took place in Oregon. My sister Melissa (with her newborn baby) and I flew from Chicago to be a part of it all. It is amazing how quickly the time goes.
As you know, weddings are beautiful things where two people pledge their love to one another before God and man. There are vows that often include phrases like "for better or for worse". Twenty-three years ago Eric & Cherié had no idea where life would take them. On June 15th of this year, they had no idea what the 16th would bring.
We are now eighty-three days into this new chapter of the journey. So on this day, Twenty-Three years from the day they said "I do" to each other, I raise a toast!
Here's to Eric & Cherié! A strong couple whose love has been forged through thick and thin... through the good and the bad... A couple whom I'm proud to know!
Love you guys!
Kent
P.S. It wouldn't be like me not to throw in a touch of humor into such a fine post, so here's another shot of Eric from that era...

P.S. Wow - what did you weigh, Eric? 145 pounds? Egad! For those who are reading who haven't had the pleasure of meeting the Williamsons in person, Eric is around 6'4"!
Happy Anniversary!!!!
"Here's Cal Worthington and his dog Spot!" lol
*Raising my glass to Eric and Cherie*
I pray for God's blessings on you for the next 23 years...

Happy Day to both of you and to your kids!
I do like Cherie's hair. All of us gals from the 80's have a few pictures with the that kinda hair! LOVE IT!
You both look like such cute kids!

Happy anniversary--for better and for worse, you are a pretty wonderful couple (even though I have never met you). Thanks for sharing both the photos from 23 yrs ago and yesterday's of Conoor. What a BIG step in the right direction and Praise God for the most recent vent settings! Hang in there, all of you. Cheryl
oops, my fingers typed too fast and I made a "typo"--sorry about the spelling of Connor's name!
Happy, Happy Anniversary...once again we are thrilled with a bit of family history and so very luck that we get to celebrate with you.
We hope you have a moment in your day to celebrate each other. You have been an example of a Godly couple working through a tough time together. Stand strong and know God is with you through the next 23 years to help you hold onto each other just as strongly.
Your son and daughter could not ask for a better example of a marriage, or any of the young people that have been part of your families life through all this. Something to strive for.....
Myers Family
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!!!
Eric - I believe you were married 23 years ago! :)-
Cherie - You must have been a child bride :) I are still just as beautiful... if not more!
May the next 23 years be filled with only love and good things!
Cheers to you both and the family you created!
Kent, that was a wonderful post and toast. Honored to lift our virtual glasses with you to honor Eric and Cherié. HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!!
We're praying for all of you.

p.s. - So that's what Eric looked like with hair. Sorry...just couldn't resist that one. :)
Eric, in that first picture of you two camping you look a little like Dennis Weaver!!! Cherie, you haven't changed much, what do you do to look so darn good? God bless you both today and all the coming days He gives to you both. Happy Anniversary!!!!!

At first glance, I thought the first picture was a wedding picture! LOL It kind of looks like you were possibly cutting the cake. I was thinking, "Wow!, they must have had a Super-Casual wedding!" As I read on, I saw that it was a camping trip and was relieved. I assume you two got a little more dressed up for the actual wedding.
Congratulations on your anniversary!
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY, Eric and Cherie.
May we all dance at your 50th!!
GOD continue blessing you and your family.

Eric & Cherie-
The previous posters took the words out of my mouth: Cal Worthington and 80s hair!! Reminds me of me with 80s hair! Hahahahah!!
God bless you on this special day.

Eric & Cherie, Happy Anniversary! Kent thanks for the pictures of them soon after their wedding. I was wondering what they looked like. I am sure after 23 years they do look different as I know my husband and I look much different after almost 29 years(in two more weeks) :) I am so pleased to hear the news on Connor's breathing. With God all things are possible. I wait each day to bring up this mail to see how he is doing. Bless his heart.
Bless all of you that are behind him with love and prayers.
Love in Christ, Marge, from Spring Creek, Nevada
