Synopsis
For twenty years, Ellen Greene kept a running list of the thoughtful, funny, touching things that her husband, Marsh, said and did. She wrote them down secretly, then shared them with him every Valentines Day when he would find pages from her “Sweet Things List” tucked inside a card.
A lovely and poignant tribute to a man and a marriage, written with grace and candor, Remember the Sweet Things captures the kindness, sharing, humor, and affection that defined the Greenes union and encourages us to acknowledge the goodness in our own lives and relationships.
