Connie and Alfred - 60th Anniversary



Connie and Alfred were married on Nov. 8, which is also Connie's birthday. She turns 80 this year, but they were having it now when the family could gather without worrying about snow. Two of Geraldine's children weren't there and one of Shauna's.
Oh yes, one girl of Conrad's...he has two. We were surprised to see Karen and Ladell until we remembered the connection to Alfred. It was interesting to see all the family and all the kids. I didn't really know why we were there since we aren't immediate family...maybe because we invited them to ours. We sat by Martha, Cal and Carrie and had some good laughs. We brought along the old shed picture and the above picture of the Bailey girls...and the statue. Alfred said he was dressed in brown and Connie looked just like the grey. Connie said she was from Nov. to July older than you, Gerry. "Imagine, we will both be eighty within a year!" The dinner was pot roast and rib. Alfred paid..and the whole family was spending the night and going on a tour this morning. We asked them if they can hang in another 10 years...Alfred doubts it!

  1. A very good picture of Connie and Alfred but couldn't tell who was who in the other picture besides Connie and Martha Rae the tall one. The couple has weathered well!

  2. The other two are Carrie and Aunt Nellie...the last picture she had before she died. They were coming to the Reynolds' Reunion to Visit with everyone. All the family..Connie said she didn't think they had one with all of them for years.

  3. Nellie looks so sophisticated I have to laugh. I had no idea that was her. I thought who in the world is that little old lady?
