I am the type that can talk to an older person forever and just listen to the stories of when they were are age. I was talking to my grandma villegas one day and she told me the story of when my grandpa villegas asked her to marry him..i guess you would have to know my grandpa villegas as my family on here would tell you, you respected my grandpa, nothing scared him and he was more then willing to offer a firm hand when needed.. anyway he was going off to fight in wwII and asked my grandma villegas to merry him before he left, she never really said yes or no she told him that he would have to ask her dad ( I cant spell my great grandpas last name) so grandpa said he would talk to him after dinner, my grandma ran all the way home to tell my great grandparents that he was going to ask for her hand in marriage, my great grandpa asked her if she wanted to marry him and she said yes but not before he went off to war, now Villegas family you know my grandpa very well...he is leaving to go to my grandmas house to ask her dad for hand in marriage, but does not go alone he has his whole family go with him because he was scared of what my great grandpa would say, well he asks my great grandpa and he say yes that my grandpa can marry my grandma but it would be a proper wedding and it would not be rushed and when he came back from war him and my grandma could be wed. and on march 26 year I dont know they were married at Our Lady of Lourdes church on hill Ave. some of you may not know but frank and I had are first wedding at Grace church and the day before the wedding I almost called it off because I called my grandma and grandpa about going to the wedding and they said an aunt got them a trip to Fl and were not going to be able to attend, all I could do is cry, but grandma made the cakes and my mom picked them up for us..well about 5 yrs into marriage grandma had told me she always dreamed of her children or grandchildren getting married at the church her and grandpa got married at, said aunt sue was close to renewing vows there. so as a token of my love and respect to both my grandma and grandpa frank and I both went and met with Father Jim Brown at Our Lady of Lourdes for many weeks and I did everything I had to to give my grandma that wedding at the church she wanted for another family member so bad. and who did I have give me away and also stand by my side? you got it my grandma villegas ( my grandpa was watching from a chair in heaven) my grandma made me feel so special that day (everyday) that my aunt connie made a shawl for my grandma to wear when she married my grandpa and my grandma asked me not only to wear it but to keep it....I have so much love and respect for my grandparents, my biggest fear besides loosing my kids is loosing my grandma before I can save enough money to go to alanta to see her..Joshua Zielinsk iAnderia Zielinski please hug grandma for me, please whisper in her ear that dawn has not forgotten her, and PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE send some pictures...I lost all mine in a fire and I would give my last breath if not to hold only to be able to look at her pic and look in hers eyes
