<strong>RICHARD</strong> <strong>ALLEN</strong> <strong>SCOTT</strong><br />

THROUGH THE YEARS<br />

Perhaps <strong>the</strong> stress of being stuck in a crowded elevator <strong>the</strong> night before at my parents’ hotel,<br />

and needing <strong>the</strong> fire department to free us, was a contributing factor to Sharon’s malady on our<br />

wedding day. Or perhaps it was <strong>the</strong> thought of getting married.<br />

She managed to make it through <strong>the</strong> ceremony, only throwing up once in <strong>the</strong> church.<br />

The beautiful bride - 1973<br />

We made it from <strong>the</strong> church to <strong>the</strong> photo shoot and <strong>the</strong>n<br />

<strong>the</strong> reception, but she was whisked away right after our<br />

toast, and<br />

ended up in<br />

hospital for<br />

several days.<br />

Food<br />

poisoning or<br />

a nervous<br />

breakdown?<br />

Not sure.<br />

Anyhow, a<br />

day to<br />

remember.<br />
