GJ - I am posting 50th wedding anniversaries and other anniversaries being celebrated. Let me know on Facebook if you want yours listed. I will mark the 50th with the golden wedding anniversary label so we can see them as a group.

Honoris Causa - A Couple To Add To Our Golden Wedding Anniversary List - William Daniels and Bonnie Bartlett - 67 Years!+
The longtime couple, whose 73rd wedding anniversary falls on June 30, exclusively tells PEOPLE about their enduring love story.
Mr. Feeny isn’t done teaching life lessons.
Fans of “Boy Meets World” actor William Daniels initially believed he had died on Thursday when the 98-year-old posted a throwback photo on social media to promote a sale on his signed headshots.
The longtime actor’s followers, who apparently did not read the post’s caption, saw the image and assumed it was a death announcement.

Sometimes one spouse does not live to the 50th wedding anniversary, but the date is still the golden anniversary, even in this grief-denying society of ours. I am listing all golden anniversary posts here and also putting this post in the left column with the rings graphic.
In the unlikely event of an oversight, please let the overworked and underpaid blogger know. I am adding the label Golden Wedding Anniversary to the ones previously posted. Click on the label list and see if you were included, or look on your post and see if the label is there.

Memories - Guy Johnson And Mittens
 |
| Guy Johnson, NRA expert |
Guy Johnson made sure that we would get together during the MHS 2016 reunion. He brought his favorite dog Mittens to the motel and we sat outside with Sassy Sue (German Shepherd mix). Christina was there too - and enjoyed Guy's tour of Europe, with a special love for Germany.
I thought sweet little Mittens was a lot of fun, so she expected 100% attention from me. That was fun, but Sassy did not want to share. Mittens turned into a viper when Sassy approached the two of us and tried to chase Sassy away.
Sassy felt left out, so Guy adopted her for petting the rest of our time. Instead of being sad, Sassy proudly sat next to Guy for constant petting. That was the only time the two dogs met, but it was also the last time we saw Guy. Those moments and time are priceless.
