BSP series, "Love Matters" starting soon

Are you a Bed-Stuy resident who has been married 10+ years, and you are still very much in love with your significant other? Do you know of someone who has been married 10+ years and the relationship is still going strong?

Not every couple is meant for each other, and not every couple is meant to stay together. But for those of you in the community who have found true love, Bed-Stuy Patch would like to share your testimony of how you have held it together all of these years.

Through your ups and downs, good times and bad, what has been the glue that has helped bind your love through the years?

Once a month, beginning in June, BSP will feature an audio slide show of couples, young and old, in Bed-Stuy whose love has stood the test of time. The name of the monthly feature is "Love Matters."

If you or someone you know would be an ideal feature, please contact C. Zawadi Morris at c.zawadi.morris@bed-stuy.patch.com.
