MEMBERS IN BEDFORDSHIRE

One of our older members to get married, way back in 2003, was Bill from Biggleswade in Bedfordshire.

Bill's wife died early in 2002 after 41 years of marriage and he was on his own for the first time in his life. It was awful for him and the evenings were worst when his family, who lived nearby, had gone home. He joined friendsfirst and received his first set of profiles in August. He might not have rung Lois, as he would have had to travel round the dreaded M25 to get to Basingstoke where she lived. Luckily she phoned him and from the 1st moment they met at Basingstoke Railway Station it was right. Bill found himself giving Lois a huge hug, which took him by surprise as he’s not a spontaneous person. From then on things moved very quickly and when Lois went to visit her daughter in Scotland 2 weeks later any doubts they may have had disappeared.  They talked on the phone every day and both families were’ tickled pink’ at the idea of romance at 70 for their aged parents.  They are very happy and feel very blessed in their life together.

Bill and Lois’s advice to anyone hesitating about taking such a step - GO FOR IT!!! You have nothing to lose and maybe a whole new life to gain. You can read their story in full by clicking here.
