Former President Harry Truman was a dyed-in-the-wool romantic. He pursued his wife, Bess, for many years before she agreed to marry him. He first asked her in 1911 and they were finally married in 1919.
But once he married her, Mr. Truman continued to romance his wife. When he was away from her he wrote love letters. When Bess Truman died in the early 1980’s, more than 1,200 letters from her husband were discovered in her home. Harry never stopped courting Bess. (H. Norman Wright, Romancing Your Marriage, 169, 170).
