YEARS LATER. THEY HAD THIS MADE FOR US. BARBARA GREGORY MET THE LOVE OF HER LIFE, GLENN. MORE THAN 60 YEARS AGO. AND OF COURSE, YOU KNOW, BEEN MARRIED. THAT LONG. WE HAD OUR UPS AND DOWNS. BUT SHE SAYS THE GOOD FAR OUTWEIGHED THE BAD. THEIR LOVE STORY STARTED WHEN THEY WERE TEENAGERS, OUT ON A DOUBLE DATE, BUT THEY WEREN’T WITH EACH OTHER. BARBARA WAS OUT WITH SOMEONE ELSE. HE WAS JUST A REALLY, REALLY GOOD FRIEND. BUT WHEN I MET GLENN, I SAID, GET ME A DATE WITH HIM. SO HE GOT ME A DATE WITH GLENN, AND. AND THAT’S HOW WE MET. AND THEY WERE TOGETHER EVER SINCE THE COUPLE MARRIED IN 1963. AND PLANTED THIS TREE WHEN THEY CAME BACK FROM THEIR HONEYMOON. THROUGH THE YEARS, AS THAT TREE GREW, YOU KNOW, OF COURSE, OUR MARRIAGE GREW AND IT KEPT GROWING AND KEPT GROWING, KEPT GROWING. BUT BARBARA SAYS ABOUT TWO MONTHS AFTER TYING THE KNOT, GLENN LOST HIS WEDDING RING NEAR THIS SYMBOL OF THEIR LOVE WHILE HE WAS SETTING A FOOTER FOR THEIR MOBILE HOME. YOU KNOW, SO WE IMMEDIATELY STARTED LOOKING AND NEVER FOUND IT. NEVER FOUND IT. GLENN DIED IN DECEMBER FROM CANCER AND WAS BURIED ON THEIR FARM. MR. GREGORY’S GRAVE WAS RIGHT HERE, WHERE THE STRAW IS. BARBARA HIRED SEARCY MONUMENT COMPANY TO PLACE THIS MARKER ON HIS GRAVE. JONATHAN SEARCY SAYS AS THEY WERE DIGGING, THEY SAW SOMETHING GLISTENING IN THE SUN. IT WAS GLENN’S WEDDING RING. HE LOST IN 1963. FOUND MORE THAN 60 YEARS LATER, RIGHT NEAR THE TREE, THE COUPLE PLANTED THE ODDS ARE THERE 1,000,001 TO FIND IT. IT’S KIND OF LIKE FINDING A NEEDLE IN A HAYSTACK. IT WAS JUST GOD WORKS IN MYSTERIOUS WAYS. BARBARA SAYS WHILE SHE’S GLAD TO HAVE THIS RING BACK, SHE SAYS THERE’S STILL ONE MORE MISSING. AS IT TURNS OUT, GLENN LOST TWO RINGS DURING THEIR MARRIAGE, AND WHEN HE DIED, BARBARA HELD ON TO THE THIRD BAND SHE BOUGHT FOR HIM AND IT’S IN HERE, I KEPT IT, I DIDN’T SEND IT WITH HIM. I THOUGHT MAYBE HE MIGHT LOSE IT ON HIS WAY TO HEAVEN. I DIDN’T KNOW. SO NOW, LOOKING AT THE LONG LOST RING, BARBARA IS REMINDED OF THEIR LOVE AND THE BOND SHE SAYS CAN NEVER BE BROKEN IN H
