HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY, EVERYBODY!





I love The Diane Rhem Show on NPR.
On today's show, she interviewed Dan Jones, the author of the "Modern Love" column in the New York Times, who has written a book called Love Illuminated.

When Diane met her husband of 50-somthing years, she thought he had a voice that was too loud.  "Didn't his mother ever teach him to modulate his voice?" she (a secretary) wondered about him (an attorney).

Now he is living in an assisted living facility with Parkinson's Disease, and his voice is no longer loud, but very quiet and gentle.  When asked by a caller to talk about her long and happy marriage, she talks about the "wonderful" voice of the man she loves.
