Special to the WJH Larry and Glenda Lee of Blackshear are celebrating their 55th Wedding Anniversary. They were married August 30, 1969 by Elder Frank Lee at the home of Glenda’s parents, Burris and Nola Drawdy in Blackshear.
Mr. and Mrs. Lee have two children, Ron Lee and Leslie (Gail) Lee, both of Blackshear; six grandchildren, Logan (Sam) Lee, Spencer Lee, Kalynne (Caleb) Hiers, Gracie Stafford, Zach Lee and Maegan Lee; and four great-grandchildren, Rowen, Ridge and Rhett Hiers and Ezekiel Lee.
The Lees have resided in Pierce County for their entire married life. Mr. Lee was self-employed for over 50 years building custom cabinets and furniture and is now retired.
Mrs. Lee retired in 2005 from the Department of Veterans Service after 34 years of service to veterans and their survivors. She has since continued serving families as the office manager of The Speech Clinic for the past 15 years.
Both are identical twins, and they are members of High Bluff Primitive Baptist Church.
The Lees would like to invite friends and family to celebrate with them at their 55th wedding anniversary reception. A drop-in reception will be held from 3 p.m.-5 p.m. Saturday, November 9, at Oak Lane at 622 Main Street in Blackshear.
In lieu of gifts, the Lees have stated your presence in sharing the joyous occasion with them will be their treasured gift.
