Two well known identities in Gisborne, John and Harriet Gillgren of 333 Aberdeen Road celebrated the diamond anniversary of their wedding recently. Except for one month in Auckland, the Gillgrens have spent all their married life in Gisborne. Labour weekend marked the highlight of the celebration when over 100 members of the family gathered in Gisborne for a family reunion. Mr and Mrs Gillgren have 10 children, 49 grandchildren, and 41 great-grandchildren. (K.K.K.)
