TOH Hosts Valentine's Day Wedding Vow Renewal for Vets
22.02.12
This Valentine’s Day, love was a many splendid thing for one Floral Park couple who renewed their wedding vows during a romantic ceremony performed by Hempstead Town Supervisor Kate Murray at the American Airpower Museum in Farmingdale.
Standing among a collection of vintage American aircrafts and fighter planes, a group of Nassau County GIs with compelling wartime love stories gathered together to renew their commitment to each other in front of a large crowd of friends and family.
“Our veterans have proved, time and time again, the commitment and love they have for our great nation,” Murray said. “It is therefore fitting that this Valentine’s Day, we focus on the love and commitment our veterans and their spouses have for one another.”
Gulf War Veteran Joe Reale, and his wife, Toni, have been married for nearly 40 years. Their love story began in 1971, when Joe simply needed a date for a military social at Fort Hamilton. Little did he know that date
