MINNIX ANNIVERSARY

Clarence E. Minnix, age 94, and Jessie Via Minnix, age 91, celebrated their 60th wedding anniversary during the Christmas holidays at the home of their daughter, Sylvia, in Etters, Pa.

Attending the celebration were their three daughters, one son-in-law, six of their eight grandchildren, an "adopted" daughter and her son from Sweden, and many friends they have made in Pennsylvania. Over 55 other friends and family members who could not attend sent "memory gifts" of cards, letters, pictures and personal videos.

Mr. Minnix is a retired electrician from the Salem Tannery, and Mrs. Minnix is a retired homemaker.
