ANNIVERSARIES

Earl and Lorraine Anderson

60th Anniversary

Earl and Lorraine Anderson’s children, Mike and Mary, their spouses, their grandchildren and a great-grandson would like to announce their 60th wedding anniversary on April 17, 2020.

Married in 1960, they spent the next years building a life together, making many lifelong friends and experiencing countless adventures in their home state of Minnesota. They moved to Idaho in 1978 and have lived here ever since. When they are not traveling the U.S. in their RV, they love to camp and fish, support their favorite sports teams, and spend time with their family who have settled nearby.

Earl sold his barber shop in 2001 but never really retied from the business, he would miss the people too much. Lorraine retired from nursing the same year, but her kind and thoughtful heart won’t let her get too far from the caregiver that she’s always been.

Please join us in celebrating their milestone anniversary.

Dennis and Bonnie Williams

50th Anniversary

On April 18, 1970, Bonnie Grygny and Dennis Williams were married at St. Thomas Catholic Church in Coeur d’Alene.

They raised their three children, Beth, Lace and Denny in Hayden. Over the years, they have operated Williams Paint & Coatings, and have enjoyed gardening, camping and relaxing on the Oregon Coast together. Spending time with their six grandchildren is another great delight.

Congratulations on 50 years of marriage, Dennis and Bonnie!
