Hey Gerri - your dad's from my town. My dad - Campbellton New Brunswick Canada my mum - Saint John New Brunswick, Canada they met in Saint John after dad's family moved there. Dad was 21 and Mum 18 when they got married. Dad passed 12 years ago, Mum says no one will ever take his place. She did have a friend for a few years but said straight out she will never love any man as much as she loved Dad. Misses him terrible still. Deb

My Dad was born in St Annes on Sea, Lytham, to a middle-class couple. My Mum was born in Aberdeen, to a very working-class couple. They met in WW2 when my Dad was stationed in Aberdeen. Mum was only 16 when they married, and before they married, my Dad, a terrible snob, insisted that my Mum have Elocution lessons, to rid her of her broad Aberdeen accent. It still makes my blood boil to think that she agreed to this! Olde Crone
