GOLDEN ANNIVERSARY
So pleased to be wishing Mackay Street residents Bruce and Lynne Packham a happy 50th Wedding Anniversary. They were married in the Uniting Church, Cootamundra on March 10, 1962.
Lynne had her two nieces Anne Nuss and Sandra Green as junior bridesmaids and Bruce was attended by good friend David Granger, of Molong.
Bruce and Lynne have three daughters Vicki Rawiri (Cowra), Kim Perry (Cootamundra) and Jodi Wrenford (Canberra).
A celebration was held in Canberra at The Deck, Regatta Point, Commonwealth Park with family members in attendance (from left) Katie, Abby, Kim and Chris Perry, Lynne, Terry Rawiri, Bruce, Jodie and Glenn Wrenford, Vicki Rawiri (in front) Holly and Cooper Wrenford.
Family photos were organised during the luncheon celebration and the photographer turned out to be former Cootamundra resident Pam Tilleard (now Heggaton). Pam and her husband John did an excellent job providing photos the following afternoon.
