We knew you were different - When you were quite young
A good little kid - Who certainly couldn't be called high strung
You loved dressing up - And putting up your own hair
You had a very kind heart - And for others you truly did care!!

You do love to cook - And as a cook you really do well
So Jon should be well fed - But on what, you never can tell
Speaking of Jon - There's one thing he loves to do
It's playing the game of softball - But Stacy, this is something that you knew!!

You love collecting cookbooks - And reading books as well
When you were in Middle School - Reading was something at which you did excel
You actually read more books - Than the Librarian of the school
You made us both quite proud - As your Dad, I especially thought this was cool!!

Your nickname is Selma - But we won't go into why
A girl should have some secrets - But privately you can tell your guy
In 1998, Miss Fridley you became - And what a Queen you were
We truly had a fun year - Attending the parades and as your chauffeur!!

You and your Princess' - Represented Fridley with pride
Attending 30 or 40 events - As parents, it was an exciting ride
Now Jon is the oldest of five - Who was scrutinized when trouble arose
We know he must have changed - "Trouble" our Miss Fridley would not have chose!!

Jon is an architect with Manley Bros - He was almost a barber, don't you know
He gave his brother Matt a mohawk - A backwards mohawk, but that was long ago
Stacy, we're proud of you both - You, an architect with the Cunningham Group
You both worked hard through college - Maybe some of that tuition you can recoup!!

You and Jon met at a dance - And it sounded like love at first site
Now from my personal perspective - Jon, that was really very bright
For you two make a lovely couple - With similar interests, except softball
And with what you two have going - That one difference is very small!!

As the proud parents of the bride - We'd like to toast Stacy and her new groom
Please all raise your glasses - Each of you in this room
May all your dreams come true - And your love continue to grow
May you always keep smiling - As down the road of life you go!!
HEAR HEAR!!
