50 Years After Dad Refused To Let Her Marry, She Found A Newspaper Clipping Saved In Mom’s Wallet

by Zack Walkter

Published August 30, 2017

In 1961, Janice and Prentiss fell in love. They kissed, held hands (as was the way in the 60s), and got engaged! But, they never got married because Janice’s father wouldn’t allow it. Janice’s father threatened to cut her off if she kept seeing Prentiss. Despite this, Janice and Prentiss knew that one day they would marry each other.

After 50 years, Janice and Prentiss got back in touch with each other – and as fate would have it – they finally got married! The happy couple said their vows in the courtyard where they first met back in 1961!
