When Thelma turned 80, her newfound showed their appreciation by throwing a surprised birthday party by for her. When Thelma entered the dinning room for dinner that night, she greeted by standing ovation and one of the coordination led her to the head table. The night was filled with laughter and entertainment, but throughout the evening, Thelma could not take her eyes off a gentleman sitting at the other side of the table.
When the festivities ended, Thelma quickly rose from her seat and rush over to the man. "Pardon me," Thelma said. "Please forgive me if i made you feel uncomfortable by staring at you all night. I just couldn't help myself from looking your way. You see, you look just like my fifth husband."
"Your fifth husband?" replied the gentleman. "Forgive me for asking , but ow many times have you been married?"
With that, a smile came across Thelma's face as she responded, "Four".
They were married shortly after.
