Sunday, Nov. 8 was a great day for Lloyd and Margaret Smelser as they celebrated their 60th wedding anniversary at Springdale Friends Church. Beginning at the morning service, there was special music. Following the worship service, a carry-in dinner was served, then a reception with cake and punch from 1:30-4:30 p.m. A large crowd of friends, relatives and church families helped them celebrate.
