65th Wedding Anniversary!

Floyd Wesley Farrington and Shirley Ann Perry married April 12, 1947, 
in McCamey, Texas. They celebrated their 65th anniversary at their 
home in Bronte, where they've lived and ranched over the past 
30 years. 

Floyd is a veteran of the WWII Naval Submarine Service. He owned and 
operated Miles Paint and Body Shop when they lived in Miles, 
Texas. He is a Master Mason in the Miles Chapter of the Masonic Lodge.
 
Shirley is a home maker and helped Floyd as bookkeeper, travel companion, 
and with ranching responsibilities.
 
They've packed up their RV and taken many trips with their grandchildren 
over the years. One of their favorite places to take grandsons was 
Lake Amistad. While Floyd worked for Infilco Degremont Corporation 
as a Field Service Engineer, they traveled to Egypt, Taiwan, Jamaica, 
and many other places.
 
They have two daughters, Kathy McCown and husband Sid, and Linda
