Happy 60th Anniversary

Bob and April Oakden
Happy 60th Anniversary

Today is our parent's

60th wedding anniversary.

It is a bittersweet milestone,

as our lovely mother moved into a memory care unit earlier this year.

She often doesn't remember

who she is, but she lights up

every time she sees our dad.

Every. Time.

Seems like this kind of love

doesn't live in the brain.

It must have settled in her bones.

It's holding on like a muscle.

Certainly a love worth celebrating. Happy anniversary, Mom and Dad.

 

Love Lisa, Leslie, Linsay

and Families

They strung them along for years until they had no financial choice but to accept and get out. My Dad even hauled water for the Snow ranch trying to stay afloat. May God bless you all. I truly pray it works out for you.Comment publication date: 3/28/26, 9:22 PMComment source: Local Rancher Says Navy Land Expansion is Devastating His Family RanchComment author: Lynn JohnsonComment text: I remember your mother well; she was a lovely and kind woman.

I see glimpses of your face in the years worn onto my dad. It makes me feel more connected to you in some way. I remember the familiar kindness from you that I know in my dad. I would’ve really liked to have a good conversation. I only have a handful of memories with you, but you were loving, and you were kind. I wish I was able to say more. If I am someone to you, I hope I make you proud. Thank you Aunt for this sweet post.Comment publication date: 3/27/26, 12:11 AMComment source: Obituary -- Randolph Floris Banovich C Comment author: RBCComment text: The Navy should reimburse the market cost of replacing the grazing land they are taking.
