We had an older couple in this week that were in their late 80s. They had been married for 61 years, and she wanted to replace the diamond in the center of her ring because she lost it. They were gonna replace it with a CZ. She asked her husband, “Can I get a real diamond?” And he says, “I love you more than biscuits and gravy.” And she says, “And he loves biscuits and gravy a lot.” We all enjoyed that. — Dave Fadel, Fadel Enterprises, Bountiful, UT
