A very special couple celebrated a very special occasion recently.
After 50 years of wedded bliss, John and Betty Harkin from Termon celebrated their milestone occasion with a party in the Lagoon, with family, neighbours and friends last week.
On a cool, spring day, Monday 18th April 1966, the Happy Couple were married in Termon chapel by Fr. Patrick McCafferty with Seamus Harkin, best man and Sally Helferty as bridesmaid.

Afterwards, they held a reception in Jacksons Hotel, Ballybofey.
Living in Kilmacrennan first, then moving up the road to Clonkillymore in Termon, John and Betty had a family of 9 and are now blessed with 22 grandchildren, the latest, John Joseph arriving on their actual wedding anniversary.
And their 50th wedding anniversary celebrations was the perfect way of reliving all those happy memories which only families can bring.
