60th High School Reunion, He was a widower and she a widow.
They had known each other for a number of years being high school classmates and having attended class reunions in the past without fail.
This 60th anniversary of their class, the widower and the widow made a foursome with two other singles .
They had a wonderful evening, their spirits high
The widower throwing admiring glances across the table.
The widow smiling coyly back at him
Finally, he picked up courage to ask her, “Will you marry me?”
After about six seconds of careful consideration, she answered, “Yes,….
yes I will!” The evening ended on a happy note for the widower.
But the next morning he was troubled
Did she say Yes? or did she say No? He couldn't remember
Try as he would, he just could not recall.
He went over the conversation of the previous evening, but his mind was blank.
He remembered asking the question but for the life of him he could not recall her response.
With fear and trepidation, he picked up the phone and called her
First, he explained that he couldn't remember as well as he used to.
Then he reviewed the past evening
