Tom and Judy (Gilmet) Hart are happy to announce their 50th wedding anniversary.

Tom and Judy met on a blind date on Thanksgiving weekend of 1969, and were married Oct. 10, 1970 at St. Anne’s Church by Father Isadore Mikulski.

They have been blessed with three children, Stephanie of Howell, Michael of Grand Rapids, and Adam of Shenzhen, China.

Their plans to celebrate have been put on hold until 2021, when they will travel to Utah to visit national parks. They are also planning a family trip to Pictured Rocks with their kids in the summer of 2021.
