As Steven likes to tell it, back then we were both students at Lafayette College and both on the Dean's List. Only, I was on the right one. And it was true we did have some interesting (and at times perplexing) run-ins with professors and administrators.

There was also that time Steven and I took a walk about the quad, and Registrar Cyrus Fleck strolled past. He glanced sideways, tipped his hat. "Good morning, Marianne." Then stared straight ahead. "Mr. Gage."
I suppose we were an odd couple. But I found something fundamentally good and lovable in Steven and he returned love for love.

Truth be told, his love was deeper and stronger. That's why, two blinks of the eye, four children, eight major moves, richer-poorer, in sickness and in health, for better or worse, thirty years later we're still together.
