This is Stewart and Patricia Kennedy's wedding in 1962; Donald and Ruth were married the next year. Ruth is not a member of the wedding party, but there is Donald on the left (also John and Norma Morse, and I believe Rhonda Morse). My mom met my dad when she was in an Acton diner with a friend - in walked Donald and Stewart, and they all went bowling!

Phyllis and siblings, I was sorry to learn of the loss of your father, and now of your mother. I have a lot of good childhood memories from visiting your family at your two Boxborough homes. God be with you all.
