continued from p.4 Couple's bond has endured the challenges and Sue simply explained, "All couples go through tough times and some people have more challenges than others." Their success for a happy relationship is talking to each other and having faith. Every day, they read devotionals together and they pray. Sue and Russell focus on the good things in life and you can see they take the time to appreciate the little things that most of us take for granted. With the support of their family, they can face new challenges, all the while retaining the belief they are fortunate to have each other and to live in their "Heaven on Earth" apartment.
