This page is dedicated to my husband, William J. Custer, Sr.

I met Bill when I was in my senior year of college.  I was helping to register first year students and he was one of them.  I checked his paperwork and saw that he was a music major just as I was.  So, of course, we had something to talk about. 

The next time we met was at my piano teacher's wedding a couple of days later.  I went with my ex-fiancé and some other people.  I sat and bawled through the whole wedding.  LOL.  It was the first wedding I had attended after I had broken up with my fiancé.

At the reception Bill and I talked the whole time.  Can't remember what we talked about though.  But, I do know we had fun.  He kept me laughing.

Well, as the year went.  i found out he was divorced.  At the college we went to they didn't allow single students to date divorced students.  It was a Christian college.  Well, growing up in a strict Christian home, I figured Bill was off-limits. 

To make a long story short, I fell in love with Bill.  He asked me to marry him and I said "yes!" It was on a Sunday afternoon and we were sitting in a park in Redlands where we attended church.  Bill was the music director and I was the pianist.

We got married at the city hall in San Bernardino on July 11, 1988.

My mom was not thrilled that I had married him, but, hopefully, she has accepted him.  We have been married for fourteen years this past July 11.  We have had more than our share of problems and we have come through them with all the credit going to God.  We would be divorced by now if it hadn't been for our Lord and Savior.

Well, that's the basis of our getting together.  Bill is the love of my life.  I see him as my knight in shining armor.  That is why I used this particular background set.  Bill has a wonderful sense of humor.  I am always laughing at something he says or does. 

Bill is an amazing person.  He is so musically talented.  He plays most any band instrument you hand him.  Believe me, this is the absolute truth.  His musical strengths are drums and trumpet.  He also sings. 

Bill was a professional wrestler back in the mid-80's.  He trained in the now defunct USWA (United States Wrestling Association).  He was known as General Custer.  He wore the costume and blew the trumpet as he entered.  He also wrestled barefoot.  He did a few television matches for the World Wrestling Federation which is now known as the World Wrestling Entertainment.  I think he would have been big if only his knees had not been injured.

Bill is also a martial artist.  He has a 2nd degree black belt in Shorin-Ryu Kenshinkan karate.  This a Japanese martial art.  He also has a 2nd degree black belt in TaeKwonDo and a 2nd degree black belt in TaeDoRyu™ which is his own system that he and I have developed over the years.

Bill is also a terrific provider for his family.  He is the hardest working person I know and I thank his parents for instilling that in him.

He started with the company he works for now two years ago.  He is now a retail manager for an auto parts company and the "darling" of his district.

Bill's first love of all, is Jesus Christ.  This is the way it should be.  He loves to preach and misses it terribly.  We are in the process of looking for a smaller church where we can be used of God and for God.
