Last week, I wrote about the upcoming Thanksgiving weekend and how it coincided with our 55th wedding anniversary. For about two weeks before the big day, I asked my wife what she wanted to do for our anniversary. No real plans were forthcoming so I went about our regular business of doing the best we can to publish three newspapers and help out at the Neepawa Access Community Television Station (NACTV). The Thursday before our anniversary was the regular paper delivery run to Rivers and Rapid City.

Fifty-five years ago on Oct. 11, it was a Saturday and it was a bit cool and blustery. It can easily be said that it was the most important day in my life. Christine and I got married that day in the Virden Presbyterian church. Our wedding reception was at the former Scarth School which, by 1969, had been converted into a community centre.
