The latest installment of The Crow's Nest, council member Brewster McCracken's newsletter, includes a personal note:

I got married this past weekend.

For those of you who don’t already know her, my bride’s name is Sarah Groos McCracken. We married in San Antonio, where Sarah grew up. My son Ford was my ring man. He wore his first suit, and he even picked out his own clip-on tie.

Sarah is the Programs Manager at the LBJ Library. I met her last year when my friend Catherine Robb asked me to come to a meeting at the library …

Sarah doesn’t really like politics, so I’ve had to promise her that I will never ask her to give a speech. We both like hiking and the outdoors. She indulges my guitar practicing, and she shows great grace as she regularly beats me at Boggle.

Most of all, Sarah has strengthened me in my own faith. I love her deeply and completely.

Newsdesk extends a hearty congratulations to the couple.
