Celebrating 62 Years of Wedded Bliss

The Inn is a wonderful place for couple and families to celebrate wonderful life cycle events. We feel very fortunate that our guests choose to celebrate with us at The Inn at Stockbridge B&B in the Berkshires. Last week we met Rose Mary & David Cole who celebrated 62 years of marriage. Rose Mary & David are a wonderful couple and an inspiration to all for a life well lived. They were married in Bad Axe Michigan on December 29, 1947. Rose Mary was a teacher for 33 years in Michigan, NY, PA & CT. Her first assignment was in a one room country school where she taught grades K-8. David managed a grocery warehouse. They now live in Chesire Ct near their daughter and family. They came to the inn with their daughter and son in law to celebrate their anniversary. They had a wonderful dinner at Once upon a Table. I often ask guests who are celebrating anniversaries what they think is the secret to a happy marriage. David and Rose Mary said the "secret is to enjoy one another and stick together on important and unimportant things." They truly seem to enjoy one another and it was a pleasure to meet them.
Len & I will be celebrating our 39 anniversary in April and think of Rose Mary & David as an inspiration. You too can celebrate all your special occasions at the Inn.

A BabyMoon at The Inn at Stockbridge that Started in Camp Lenox

Jeremy & Victoria Traster met at camp Lenox in the Berkshires in 1998. Both Jeremy and Victoria had a great fondness for the Berkshires that started in 1993 when Jeremy first attended camp there. Jeremy continued going to the camp that he loved so much and became a counselor there in 1996. It was by divine intervention that Victoria became a counselor there in 1998.

Victoria came from Lincolnshire England to be a counselor at Camp Lenox at the recommendation of a friend who was a counselor the previous year. Jeremy and Victoria met at camp the first year. They stayed in touch throughout the year when Victoria went back to England for her studies. Both Jeremy and Victoria returned to camp the next two summers and continued their studies during the year, Victoria at Liverpool

University and Jeremy at the University of Pennsylvania.

After college Victoria moved to Washington DC where she was a nanny and then moved to Philedelphia to be with Jeremy. The couple went back to London so Victoria could attend graduate school. Jeremy and Victoria then returned to the states and Jeremy attended Law School at Seton Hall University and Victoria attended NYU for education.

Jeremy and Victoria finally tied the knot on January 8, 2005. Jeremy is now a lawyer with Cahill & Gorden and Victoria is a teaching artist with the New Victoria Theater.

Jeremy and Victoria came to the Inn at Stockbridge for a babymoon and to celebrate their fourth anniversary. They are expecting thir first child in March. Jeremy and Victoria live in Brooklyn with their dog Charlie, a Cavachon.

Jeremy has a bit of trivia to share about Joe's diner. While a camper at Camp Lenox he frequently went to Joes diner and always ordered the same sandwich, which Joe named a JT special. The JT special is chicken cutlet, cheddar cheese, hot peppers, lettuce and russian dressing on a hard roll.

Alice & Len Schiller are thrilled that Jeremy and Victoria chose the Inn at Stockbridge to celebrate their babymoon and anniversary. We know they will be wonderful parents and hope that their children continue to go to camp Lenox and they visit us again soon.
