Marriage and Children
After his release from the Army Busemeyer found work with Sears and Roebuck Company selling vacuum cleaners in the store, and demonstrating them to interested customers in their own homes. It was hard work, he said, "... but it was damn good training." At a dance held at Xavier University, Busemeyer met and danced with Marjorie Voss, a girl from his neighborhood. The two were married on June 26, 1948. Their first child was a girl, Terri. Their second child, also a girl, was born on September 15, 1950.

Famous quotes containing the words marriage and/or children:
“Adultery is the vice of equivocation.
It is not marriage but a mockery of it, a merging that mixes love and dread together like jackstraws. There is no understanding of contentment in adultery.... You belong to each other in what together you’ve made of a third identity that almost immediately cancels your own. There is a law in art that proves it. Two colors are proven complimentary only when forming that most desolate of all colors—neutral gray.”
—Alexander Theroux (b. 1940)
“Unconditional love is loving your kids for who they are, not for what they do.... I don’t mean that we like or accept inappropriate behavior, but with unconditional love we love the children even at those times when we dislike their behavior. Unconditional love isn’t something you will achieve every minute of every day. But it is the thought we must hold in our hearts every day.”
—Stephanie Martson (20th century)
