Platinum day for Dimond couple
A CLEVEDON couple returned to the church where they were married to celebrate their platinum wedding anniversary.
A special service was held for George and Kathleen Dimond at St Andrew’s Church on June 14.
They were joined by 50 friends and family members to mark the occasion including their daughter, Christine, two grandsons and four great-grandchildren.
After the service, led by Reverend Terry Baillie, the guests enjoyed a buffet.
George and Kathleen, of Churchill Avenue, exchanged vows at the Old Church Road church 70 years ago in 1941 and have lived in Clevedon all their lives.
