and Dorothy Bero on the occasion of their 50th wedding anniversary 
which will take place this Friday, June 29, 1996.
  By joining themselves in marriage 50 years ago, Don and Dorothy made 
a commitment to sharing a life of love and respect for each other. It 
was a commitment they have kept to this day. Their strong marriage is a 
testament to this love and has provided an inspiration to all who have 
met them.
  A famous theologian once said, ``There is no more lovely, friendly 
and charming relationship, communion or company than a good marriage.'' 
The honest and unselfish love that Don and Dorothy Bero have 
demonstrated during the past 50 years strengthens the institution of 
marriage.
  I ask my colleagues to join me today in congratulating the Beros and 
to extend these warm wishes to their daughters, Nancy and Sally, and 
their grandchildren, John, Corbin and Jane.
