Don and Carolyn Boggs will mark their 50th wedding anniversary Dec. 26, 2008. Don Boggs and Carolyn Collier were married Dec. 23, 1958, at the Eel River Congregational Church with the Rev. Howard E. Warner officiating.
He retired from Biomet, Warsaw, in 1998, and she is retired from Dwyer Instruments, South Whitley. They enjoy golf, yardwork, quilting and spending time with family and friends. They reside in the Larwill/Pierceton area in the summer and in Auburndale, Fla., in the winter.
The couple have four sons: Roger (and spouse Kelly) Boggs, Larwill; Tony Boggs, Pierceton; Jeff Boggs, Claypool; and David (and spouse Shannun) Boggs, Alexandria. They have seven grandchildren.
