The father of a groom wrote:
“Last August you married my son to his bride in Yosemite Park.  It was a wonderful ceremony.  Serene in keeping with the tranquil setting and yet a joyous service under the bright blue sky surrounded by the magnificent landscape.  It was a emotionally spiritual experience for me. When you lifted up the rings to be blessed my soul was touched.  Your words were spoken from your heart.  I am so thankful they found a path to your doorstep.”
