Finding true love twice and forging family ties

When a loved one passes away, that doesn’t mean you can’t be happy again. Yes, there’s nothing wrong with taking some time to mourn your loved one. You’ll want to honor his or her memory.

But eventually, you’ll start to remember the happier times. You’ll want to experience that bliss again. And when you find another special someone – through meticulous selection or happy accident – you might be surprised by how much you’ll gain by opening up your heart once more.

Here’s to moving forward with the past in mind.

Meet Jim and Rachel Harper.

Jim and Rachel lost both their spouses in the 1950s. However, within a few years, Jim and Rachel met through an amazing set of coincidences and serendipity. They eventually got married and brought all their children together in a “Brady Bunch” type of way – long before the “Brady Bunch” was ever heard of. The children hit it off so well that they created an unwritten rule which said, “We are not step-siblings; we are true brothers and sisters.” Well, 60 years later they still follow that rule today. Jim and Rachel are still very much in love and are thankful to have found true love twice in a lifetime.
