Well today, May 31, 2015, is a special day for my wife and I. It is our five year anniversary.

Being married to Heidi has been filled with much love, fun, laughter, and joy. We are truly best friends. She is devout to God, intelligent, steady, and very supportive. She is also a fabulous musician. After marrying we both studied and completed our masters of music together (her in piano, myself in conducting). Now she runs a terrific studio teaching piano to various students. I am admittedly biased, but I think she is one of the best piano teachers I’ve seen.

For our wedding recessional, I composed a joyous and celebratory piece of praise and thanks to God called “Glory.” Our wedding attendants plus some family members and friends made up a choir of about 40 singers for the recessional. A friend took a video of the wedding. I extracted the recessional to post here.

Here is “Glory” from our wedding! (Link to the Score: Glory)

Dear Heidi,

I love you and look forward to many more years of happiness, fun, music, and service to God together.
