FEBRUARY ISSUE
Power
Couples
By Hal Lamar
"Love
and marriage, Love and marriage, go together like a horse and carriage." The writer of these lyrics never spoke truer words as they aptly describe
the 2007 Power Couples. These ambitious duos lead busy professional lives yet, find time to raise families, engage
themselves in civic, religious, and social interests and to nurture their own relationships. While their accomplished
careers and combined clout are impressive, it is the couples’ life-balancing strategies that keep their marriages fresh
and their lives fulfilled.
