The authors have had the honor of knowing Gilbert and Kathleen Wrenn for 20
years; this story is about them. As Gilbert stated, "I am not a lone star
but part of a constellation..." (Wachowiak & Aubrey, 1976 p. 76). The autho
rs are privileged to know that for Gilbert, Kathleen (his partner of 72 yea
rs in 1998) is the center of that constellation. This article briefly captu
res pieces of the journey of 72+ years, on which Gilbert and Kathleen, each
at 96 years of age, are continuing to travel together.
