When Marge Hall walked up to Roy Johnson and asked him to dance she had no idea what she was about to set in motion. Roy, the boy who skipped school to go fishing, picked blueberries in the mountains, and skated on the frozen ponds of Connecticut, decided right then he was going to marry her. But before he could make Marge his wife, he had a war to fight, letters to write, and doubts to erase, and when he returned from China, where he served as a radio operator on a B-24 bomber, his dream came true. Shortly after their wedding on November 11, 1944, Roy set a much harder goal for himself. "My one and only purpose in life is to make you a good husband, "he told Marge. For the next 65 years he tried his best to do just that.
